I'm not using the BDP105 as a transport; instead I am using DVDA10 as a CD transport fed to BDP105 as DAC. CD's sound amazing with this configuration. Now the BDP105 is no slouch as a CD player, but the above setup just seemed to sound better in areas I mentioned above.
Oppo 105 D vs. DAC-transport combination.
To my great dismay, the more I listen, I’m finding my Oppo 105 is outperforming a very well thought of DAC and transport combination for which I paid 3x the price. Basically the sound stage is wider and better defined.
Both the DAC and transport are less than a year old. I thought I was upgrading.
Played by itself, the DAC-transport combo sounds great. Until I compare it to the Oppo.
I can’t understand it!
