Audio improvement for OPPO 205

Is audio quality improvement for the Oppo 205/D potentially significant assuming there's no changes to the power supply?

Are you sure that it is the one to be offered in the 205? I hope that the 203 is not a preview of the 205 to come (video-centric). Best to you, Dave
