165H is the only 165 model, and no - they have different components and 165H/166S use 256k firmware and 163 series uses 128k firmware.

I got my 165H from www.nutrend.com, but I believe www.newegg.com has the brand new 166S version and there's only a couple dollars difference.

Only some revisions of CDS200... The difference is the components inside. The 165 and 166 are also very compact, almoast squarish.

163 and 163D does not read all DVD formats, the 165H and 166S reads everything.
You're gonna have to ask one of the audiophiles around here regarding what audio-protection it can or cannot read. Or use our search
