Oppo UDP - 205

@milpai 

Isn't it correct that I can’t use DSD with the coax digital out on the oppo to a separate DAC? I have a huge SACD collection and still spin the disc regularly. I thought I read on here that it’s a anti piracy thing or something? Plus I have a nice 4K monitor that I can plug a 205 in too! Just thought it would be easiest to sale my 105 and mod a 205! Let me know if I am understanding this correctly? 2 channel Audio is my main priority as I have an Xbox one that can handle all the 4K stuff if necessary.

thanks :)

@boisehomes, 

Thank you.very intresting and tempting., hmmm. 

Don't forget that Clones Audio has their version of PSUPD for the OPPO-205 and there is a deluxe version as well.

@boisehomes,
I thought with a firmware update, DSD is possible with 105. But I may be wrong. You can use the 105 to stream DSD to a DAC with HDMI, or create DSD files using 105. You really have lots of options. I am loving my 205, but my future upgrade would be a nice DAC and use the 205 as a transport.

If I could know 100% for certain that I can output DSD from my SACD disc to a nice out board DAC I would absolutely spend 3-4K on a new DAC instead of modding a 205. I have heard conflicting answers about it!
