Is there any benefit having the modwright upgrade if I am only using the 205 as a transport?
Moving up from an Oppo 205
I have an Oppo 205 that I am using as a DAC with an Aurrender N100 via USB. It sound surprising good and actually a better sounding (and functioning DAC) than the one in My McIntosh C2500. I not only listen to my collection of Hi-Rez files but also now Tidal with MQA. What would be a noticeable upgrade for a DAC and or DAC with steaming abilities.
Only from a 2ch audio perspective.
Thank you

Look at Lampizator from $3k or up And don't forget top sub cable the sell final touch audio Cellist, most natural sub cable I have found under$2k at $850 Truly puts your digital on another level and at around $800 As wireworld,curioys,or lightspeed and a few others Lampizator Sell the cable also trial period on their product and having vacuum tubes also adds more naturalness and upgrading tubes more tuning to your specific taste. |
IMHO there’s one clear choice AT ANY PRICE provided you’ve got a budget of at least 5-6k. The PS Audio DirectStream DAC is the cats meow. And enjoy free firmware updates for life which the company typically provides once or twice a year. You could spend 20k and not get a better sound. https://www.psaudio.com/directstream-dac/ |
I use my Oppo BD 105 as transport and HT use, but just added the Exogal Comet plus DAC for my tube gear setup and Solid state system I have been considering the Innous streamer/CD ripper, or the Exogal Vortex streamer I haven't had the Comet DAC n my sytem for very long but from what I've heard so far, its definitely a step up in sound quality! I must say I love everything that the Oppo BD 105 can do |
