Improvements to OPPO 105 DARBEE?

Are there some significant improvements to look for?
What features are obviously missing?
Are upgrades available via internet?
Assuming the stereo analog audio quality is adaquate; is there
any reason this machine would not be completely adequate to allow enjoyment of virtually all current formats for audio, video, TV, internet radio stations, etc?
What other specialty pieces of equipment are necessary to make full use of this Oppo?
I'm still using basic CD's & a turntable and not technically astute. :-(

Unless you are watching a VERY large screen (over 80 inches) or sit VERY close to your TV (less than 4 ft.), 4K offers nothing of value. 1080P looks terrific and is much less expensive than the current 4K units...

Yes. Is the OPPO decently future proof at this time?
Is the Alpha Dac 2 going to improve the Oppo sound?

Speculation on AVScience forum has the 103/105 good for another year or so due to the lack of finalization of the 4k standard, and lack of chipsets that support current standards in HDMI 2.0.

At least I hope so, as I just ordered a 103 :)
