Oppo options


I'm looking at the Oppo 93 and the Oppo 95. For the $500 difference am I better off getting the 93 and an external $500 or so DAC or does the 95 outperform that option. Also, if I do decide on the 95 what DACs would make a noticeable difference and how much would I have to spend.

For the DAC, $500. Does that include digital cable? Maybe a better power cable? NO SACD or Blue Ray playback through the DAC. I bet that you will need a very good DAC to outperform the 95, most of which cost significantly more than $500.
If you get the Oppo 95 and want to put $500 to good use, get the solid state mods from Modwright. Don't forget that the Oppo already has a very good, state of the art DAC chip.
I read elsewhere that Exemplar is out of business...is this just a rumor?
