He's nervous because if you have the volume at 100 and neglect to set it lower before you hook it up, you're going to blow your speakers. In addition when you update the firmware the volume gets reset to 100. There is a ton on information over at avsforum. Lot's of people seem to be doing it. I prefer to use a preamp.
Oppo BDP-95
I am a bit nervous. I am going to hook up my new BDP-95 directly to a pair of new Bel Canto Ref1000M monoblocks using the BDP-95's XLR outputs. From what I have read using the XLR outputs (Set on variable) on the BDP-95 the sound is great when hooked up WITHOUT a preamplifier. What, if any, experience has any member had with bypassing the preamplifier with a BDP-95. Thanks
