Oppo Nuforce BDP-93NE

Bluenose, I tried the USB drive tonight. All I can say is................ WOW.

4 days out of the box, & in h-r with the usb drive, it's already the best sounding digital I've ever heard.

Moomoo, do you hear any fan noise with the stock 95? How quiet is the rest of you gear before you added the 95?

Sorry, I just saw your question. With my better than average 54 year old ears (better than average for my age, that is!), I need to be standing pretty close to the BDP-95 to hear the internal fan. It's in a cabinet. With the door shut, I don't hear it at all. With the door open, I can only hear it within 3 feet or so, & than only if no music is playing.

It is not a problem for me. I find the background hum of my burglar alarm much more irritating.

This should be interesting. My OPPO Nuforce 93NE went back for warrenty work. While it is at Nuforce I decided to have the NE board changed to the NXE board. I decided on this rather than spending the $500 upgrade to an external dac. I just didn't want another box and wires...I'll be curious to see what I hear with the new board. WIll post when I've had a chance to play and burn the unit in when it is back.

Quick update. Received the Nuforce 93 NXE today and am now burning it in. FIrst impressions. Alex Dondysh[hope I spelled that right] has to be a music lover. He designed the NE board which I loved but this NXE board is on a whole other level....reminds me of My Roxan Zerxes..a continuous flow of musical pleasure...more later...Oh, yes this is seriously fine...more later...cheers, lloyd
