USB DAC of Oppo 205

My current solution for 2nd setup is USB from Mac Mini to Ayre QB-9 DSD DAC then balanced analog through a Parasound JC 2 to a pair of JC 1 monoblocks that drive KEF LS50s augmented by a pair of KEF KC62 subs.  Using an Oppo 205 for discs, but plan to try my Ayre C-5xeMP, but it may need service.

When I acquired an Ayre KX-5 and VX-5 Twentys I kept the KX-5xeMP.  I'm looking for an Ayre V-3 amp to use with it as an alternative to Parasound.

There's nothing quite like preaching to the choir, right?  You also seem to have everything you need to evaluate the Oppo DAC performance in your system.   

Maybe worth mentioning the (long?) pending release of Ayre CX-8 as interesting comparison with your C-5XE MP.

Changed current 2nd setup today.  It's still Mini USB to Ayre DAC, but Ayre DAC to Ayre KX-5xeMP to JC 1s.  Disc player is Ayre C-5xeMP.  Not sure if there will be role for the Oppo 205.
