Thanks men. Can I look at the info on my tv?  Via HDMI out from the 205? 
Accuracy vs. musicality
This is not complicated. Precise accuracy will reproduce the music precisely the way it was played. If you love different types of distortions- ok. have seasons tickets to classical concerts. I often love a 2nd or 3rd row,just 2/3 seats left of ce...

&artnoxon. Your comments on transient attack are likely why people fall in love with the sound of great horns speakers, like the JBL DD6700. Life.  
Accuracy vs. musicality
@artnoxon. It’s refreshing to hear “uncoloured” facts. I find it revealing of the vast differences in the enjoyment of music seeing a reasonably decent set of equipment placed in the home in a way that absolutely precludes hearing what the equipme... 
The sense of smell evokes memories, while the sense of hearing evokes emotions
I don’t think Hiefitz fits civilized and rational though. More like spellbound and entranced. Cheers to Genius and talent !! 
The sense of smell evokes memories, while the sense of hearing evokes emotions
I find music can be thoroughly enjoyed on mediocre system - dependant on circumstances, ie car audio,sundeck BBQ party, etc. However, for those of us who thrill to the nuance of delicate acoustic instruments, including woodwinds,flute,cello,guitar... 
Furman Reference IT 15i power conditioner
@vze739en. I respect your credentials and straight talk. I suggest the patented Equitech 2Q would also please you regarding sound.  
Speaker Recommendation: 20K range
Go an extra 9 grand. JBL DD 6700. You never get your tongue back in your mouth! And you may never leave your listening room! Cheers.  
Oppo 205 revelations, questions..
Anyone else having this much joy from their 205? 
Oppo 205 revelations, questions..
A big benefit of the Oppo 205. Listening to Starlight( or whatever the tv gives free) renditions of Chamber Music has convinced me to buy into a high quality streaming service. Now. Which one is it to be? This Oppo has really been worth its weight... 
Oppo 205 and external DAC?
I think you’re totally confused. You “must” use a digital out to make any use of another dac. End of story! 
To power condition or not
They should be fine thru the Furman. They’re efficient speakers and other component minuscule. You’ll probably never draw 6 amps peak ! 
Oppo 205 revelations, questions..
I appreciate the use of the Oppo 205 to add “life” to basic Stingray Oldies and Jazz channels through my Spectral stereo. Lacks detail but dynamics are better than they ever were back in the day. I’m enjoying for background.  Will be useful in cho... 
Fidelity Audio -or- Oppomod ? Or ?
No intention to duplicate/waste anyone’s time.  Other thread referred only to Oppomod. Herein trying to get info from those with experience/knowledge of the Fidelity Audio or Clones units that may have not bothered with the Oppomod thread. Thanks ... 
Oppo 205 revelations, questions..
For Oppo 205 owners. Gary Galo’s review of the 205 in Audio Express is very detailed and thorough. Perhaps more informed as he owns the 205 and 105. He’s a retired educator at the University level who remains highly involved in music and technolog...
