I added a PS Audio DAC to my Oppo 980 and it makes great music. It was very good before, now even better. I advise you to get a 980 or 983, depending on your display connections, and then later get a DAC for even better 2 channel. The PSA unit, like the famous Benchmark, has Toslink, RCA digital, and USB inputs. There are other even less expensive DACS that do the same thing. My point is, get one of the new Oppos and be happy!
? Modded Oppo 983 ?
Has anyone compared a MODDED Oppo 980 or 983 universal player to a stand alone cd player in the same modded price range?
I need variable output to feed my tube power amp and the Oppo meets this criteria. I want excellent cd playback (better than a un-modded Oppo). I can't seem to find anything else available with variable output. The Oppo's have the video portion dowm but the redbook cd playback is so-so.
I'm looking to replace my Oppo 970 (instead of modding it) with a modded 980 or 983 (1080P).
