NEW! Join the "MAKE HIFI GREAT AGAIN" facebook group! Link in linktree below: https://linktr.ee/stjernholmreviews About this review: This video is for Audio & Videophiles that care about the best quality in sound and vision and others interested in what they are missing out on, when it comes to audio & video quality on streaming services. Yes.. we are talking about the better experience here - The DISC! Meet the Magnetar UDP800, a universal disc spinner that will play all disc formats - and is built on the legendary OPPO platform that have been undisputed kings even after the company was shut down in April, 2018. To this day, nobody has been able to pull them down from the throne. Stjernholm Reviews sets out to find out if the UDP800 is up for it and what it might do better and worse. This is the no mercy review that the channel is known for. We work in the favor of YOU and not the AV business. Strap in tight to soak it all up… because the Magnetar UDP800 that I review here has a lot to offer the shiny disc in 2023 - and this review will be...well....JUICY to say the least!
