Question: I watch SD DVDs on a 42" 1080p display. what type of player offer better upconversion (will show best), an SD upcoverting player via HDMI (Oppo 981) or an HD player (Toshiba HD-XA2)? At half the price, the oppo seems the obvious choice, but what am I missing here? thanks for the input.

After a generous break in I can say it is quite a pleasant sounding little player and betters our OPPO disc player from what I can tell. It has a more relaxed presentation but very detailed as well. I can't...-
