Oppo BDP-83 optical out for 2ch stereo from blu-r?

How can you run analog outs to a a DAC? DACs accept digital inputs.

Sorry, I meant running from the blu-Ray player to the dac through the blu-Ray player's digital co-axial outputs rather than HDMI.

Sounds like you should use the digital out then.

I am doing the same with my Blu-Ray/HD DVD player with two channel PCM output over coax into my EMM Labs XDS1 CDP and it works extremely well. There is no need for a two channel specific track in your Blu-rays, every Blu-Ray player will down mix a multichannel Blu-Ray lossless soundtrack properly to two channel and should output to PCM 24/96 over coax or toslink for processing by a DAC. Further, the Oppo is said to offer a superior two channel down mix.

Of course you can, as long as you set the oppo in the audio menu to 24/96 as your output on the digital outs, you should have an option to out at least 16/48, 24/96, and I am not sure with the new oppo model but probably has capability to even output and upsample anything to 24/192...Which by the way it will upsample even a 16/44 CD to 16/48 or 24/96 with no problem as well so you can try it all ways to find out what you like or don't like about each.

However the second half of the equation and more import is does you dac truly support 24/96 or 24/192 at the input? Also you could have an upsampling DAC which means it takes the 16.44 or 16/48 signal from your transport and does its own upsampling automatically or by a switch on your DAC unit depending on the make and design. Also if your Dac only accepts a standard 16/44 or 48 at the input receiver chip and you set the oppo to output a higher rate it may reject it and not lock on at all meaning you could get a bit of a nasty sound thru your speakers or not work at all.

You will have to experiment to see what works best on your end unless you already know all your gear is capable.

Hi, I have question that the old oppo bdp 83 will accept direct 24/96 or 24/196 recoreded cd's or dvd?
