New Oppo 103 & 105 Q&A Interview

Doggiehowser, yes to a Computer.
But with the spanking new Oppo 105 it still won't handle Apple Lossless files via USB.
Might as well keep my Oppo 95 since all I use it for is to view Blu Ray movies.

To be honest, I suspect the new Oppo's playback from a USB stick is unlikely to be as good sounding as using a Mac Mini with Audirvana Plus or a PC with similar tweaks.

It looks like the aysnc USB input is only on the 105. It would nice to have USB input on the 103 without having to step up to the 105.

I thought it was kinda pointless seeing as the Oppo x3's DACs are nothing to write home about.

I do not use the DAC in my 93 but some people do and the async USB would be nice for them. Async usb could also be used for pass-thru of the digital signal to a DAC that does not not have aysnc USB - sort of a USB to S/PDIF converter - which is what I would like it for.
