High Quality Universal Player??

I bought a Lexicon RT20. It was like 28 pounds; quite the beast.  But the transport was really heavy and clunky; it died within a few months and the replacements and labor meant another $400.  Another boat anchor.  I would stay away from those and get something newer.

 Sorry to hear about your Lexicon. My OppoBDP105D is not my primary player but it keeps getting better with each disc I spin through it. SACD, HDCD playback great. I'm planning on upgrading the powercord again. (Currently Nordost Shiva) Does anyone have any positive feedback on power cords for Oppo? I'm currently using Audioquest Cheetah balanced (solid silver) interconnects with upgraded DBS. 

I've been mostly running it through a Anthem I225 Integrated Amplifier.  But it sounds superior through the Pre-output jacks, into my Levinson no. 334, or through my Classe' preamp/Levinson combo. I am still pleased with the purchass. Glad I got one before production stopped. Additionally, I can always send it out for mods.

I like the Anthem 225 integrated amp as well.  Happy Listening!

jafant,

Thanks! It is built like a tank. Very powerful. Great low frequency grip.
