there's no reason you cant use your oppo as a pre/processor--it'll probably outperform most of the mass market avrs or processors ou there.
Help with an AV processor
I am wanting to use this set-up primarily for television in a bedroom. Right now I can use it with Blu-Ray and Cds but not regular television. I believe I need a processor and a sub to complete my system so I need some guidance on which pieces to get. What should I spend, what features do I need, etc? New or used works for me. Any advice is appreciated. I'm really not very knowledgeable in this area. Here is my set-up so far:
Panasonic Plasma TV
Oppo-BDP-105D
No pre or AV processor
KEF center channel
KEF LS50 L+R
Parasound Halo A-31 3 channel amp.

How do I do this? I have been running HDMI out from the oppo to the tv. I can watch DVDs and listen to cds. I just tried running the cable server box to the HDMI in on the oppo then the output from the oppo to the tv. I had no picture so I switched it back until I'm more sure of what I'm doing. How do I proceed? And remember no one knows less about hooking this stuff up than I do. |
@wemfan Just as @loomisjohnson notes, you can use your Oppo as a preamp. See belowhttp://www.oppo-bluray.co.uk/UserFiles/Docs/PDF/BDP-105EU%20Direct%20Power%20Amplifier%20Connection%... I hope this helps you. -Al |
