Ideal way to set up the OPPO 105?


Hey,

I just ordered an Oppo 105 and am wondering which is the best way to set it up. External HD, USB Flash Drive, Laptop, ipod? Also, is it possible to control the digitized music with an ipod or iphone?

TIA

Klimt: I thought my Oppo 105 sounded very good out of the box. On the other hand, I also believed it sounded much better after two weeks of playing.

Please review the Linksys PLEK500 Ethernet over power device. Please see:

I had the same problem getting a wired connection to the Oppo and using an Ethernet over power connection is the perfect solution. Plug these devices into a separate electrical outlet. They should not share the power with another device on the same electrical plug. Do not use a power strip, plug directly into the wall.

Okay?
Hgeifman,

Thanks for the posts. Do you know if one can use MULTIPLE powerline adapters? That is, one for my computer, one for the Oppo (which I'll be using exclusively for audio), and one for my Samsung blueray player (which is connected to my flat screen). Any idea if that would work? And if so, would they all need to be the same brand?
I do not know. Please ask the manufacturer (like Linksys). Using the same brand, you should get it to work. Please call and ask someone. Let me know what they say.
Hey,

Just spoke withy Linksys tech support and they said that YES three (or more) WOULD work!

They also said they are backward compatible, but I'm not sure if that means one can combine different brands. This is good news though!
Hgeifman just curious when you say a wired connection is better do you also mean better sonically?
