@Larry5729 you are right and I too love streaming and all the new artists that I'm decovering, and I have found alot!!
But I also like listening to my CD collection as I have some obscure artists that I haven't found online yet.
I have two systems, one two channel, and a 5.1 setup. What the Oppo BD 105 allows me to do is run balanced out to my Tube preamp/amp
that drive my Maggie's in my two channel rig.
I bypass the Oppo internal DAC via BNC to my external Exogal Comet plus DAC Because the Oppo has DSP surround, I can run RCA and integrate my SVS ultra 13 sub with my Maggie's....love it
So with my Emotiva XMC-1 I can easily switch between my Oppo BD 105, Xbox one X ( plays 4k blu ray) and I like to go racing (Fonza 6) when bored and depressed by the news, and to watch that I and use Amazon firestick. No more exspensive cable TV, just YouTube TV What I save should pay for the OPPO replacement hopefully. So I would gladly pay full price to a local vendor if he can find me a suitable replacement for my beloved OPPO
