Oppo Sonica DAC Expected this fall

@erik_squires 

Eric, have you ever tried the BDP - 103 through the Brooklyn? 

On a related note, the oppo "store" http://oppodigital.com/products.asp really leaves something to be desired. Not that I'm in the market for it, but why should only the 103 model blue ray players be listed and even then are out-of-stock? Where is the 105? Where is their inventory? 

Just received my Sonica Dac today.... Must say I'm very happy. I was using the Oppo 105 as a music streamer dac and always enjoyed it. This is a major step above. The first song I listened to was  Fool in the Rain by Led Zepplin. Thought I'd go with a little through back and even my wife commented on how much better it sounded. I've been listening for a couple of hours now and I'm glad I made the purchase. All aspects of the music have improved. Instruments are more separated with more detail. Everything is more precise, crisp and clean is how I can describe it. A vail has been removed without being harsh or edgy. Bass is punchier, again more precise. Initial setup was easy. I did have to try and connect to my IPad twice, but after the second attempt I was listening to music. Streaming Tidal without any hiccups. Dire Straits has never sounded better. 

thanks, drewportland.  Please keep us posted.  I am eyeing the Sonica as a one-box upgrade to both my Squeezebox Touch and DAC (a Beresford DAC highly modded by a local modder).  I am especially interested in how it works with a music server over a home wifi network.  The price, for what you get, seems very reasonable, especially if it sounds as good as you suggest.

Wonder why Oppo did not include MQA decoding?
