Looking At CD Players

I upgraded the OEM power supply and IEC to my 105. Check them out on Ebay. I posted the links i(about a week ago) n my thread Life with Ric Schultz EVS 1200

Thanks Brian,

Aux input, do meant SPDIF input? What I was thinking to do was go digital out from the Oppo into the Comet plus, then balanced out to my ARC LS 15 pre amp that is connected to my VAC PA 80 80 amp. I could also run RCA or USB  out from the Comet plus to my Emotivia XMC-1 5.1 setup. I'm sure the Comet Plus allows this.
If I just want to go from the Comet Plus to my VAC amp I would have to use the RCA connections as that is all the VAC amp has for inputs. I could try both ways and see what sounds best. Also it would be great if I can connect my android phone to the Comet Plus to stream from Spotify, Anazon HD etc.  To connect to my network I would have to run a 40 foot cable along the floor
(wife would not be a happy camper) or go out and buy a laptop, or maybe a wireless streamer 
Oh the slippery slope!

I have a 105.  It is an amazingly versatile player but not the best for 2 channel.  However, you already own it and know the build quality.  Keep it and look for a DAC.  I use a Chord Hugo-what an amazing upgrade.

Hey just recieved this from Evotivia
Maybe just the ticket 


The Emotiva ERC-4 Differential Reference™ CD Player and Digital Transport combines a high-quality digital CD transport and a superb balanced DAC (digital-to-analog converter) in one convenient and attractive package. In addition to serving as an audiophile CD player and transport, the ERC-4 offers both Coaxial and Optical (Toslink) S/PDIF digital audio inputs, so you can also use it as a DAC with any of your other digital audio sources that includes a coaxial or optical output.

I luv my Marantz SA-8001 - an older top-of-the-line player, and would replace it with another in a heartbeat. Except for an older Sony or Phillips, I don't think you can do better for between $500-$1000... But none of these are gonna be balanced outputs.
