Oppo 105, will take a lot to beat this. Can use as a DAC with asynchronous usb connection, connects effortlessly with NAS storage via network, or hard drive directly connected, plays most formats DVD-a, SACD, blue ray. Have just received mine, and it is sonically the same as the 95. Best bang for buck would be a second hand 95, just lacks some of the connectivity options. No fan on the 105, but can't say I ever heard the fan on my 95 from the listening position, Had to put my ear right up to the unit to hear the fan. I think this is a no brainer!! but then that's just MHO.
