I've got a 105. Personally, I am not a big fan of using it to stream. You really have to have a tv on just to see the interface. Also, the DAC in the 105 is great for theater but not the best for 2 channel. My Chord Hugo streaming Tidal from my phone with an OTG cable is much better sound. You have 2 issues to look at: 1-you need a streamer which is easier to use. 2-Do you like the DAC in the 105 that much?
Using Oppo 105 as transport
'Sup?
I use my Oppo mainly as a Tidal streaming device. My Macbook Pro doesn't have a cd drive to rip into an external hd, so while I do still spin CD's, I don't nearly as I used to, gravitating towards streaming and vinyl.
What's a good, improved DAC I can use for the Oppo? I had my eye on an Eximus. Would that be a good fit? Or should I save up for a dedicated streamer? rest of the system are Spatials, Pathos, LFD, and VPI
