| oppo 105 vs 103 Certainement! My position is that there are only small differences among quality electronic components within a category (unless the manufacturer voiced with vehemence). Even via the analog outs, I could live with either the 103 or the 105 and, vi... | |
| oppo 105 vs 103 Not much more to say than I did in print. The 105 is simply more detailed yet more open/relaxed. This is based, primarily, on MCH listening. | |
| oppo 105 vs 103 What is your system and how will you be connecting the player to it? | |
| Processors On the Market Now Right. Buy a cheap/used PC laptop and stay happy. | |
| Sub connection question..... As Sid suggested, why not tell us the identity of the AVR and the subwoofer? Otherwise, any comments are merely conjecture. | |

| MULTI-CH SACD'S on 2CH SOUND STRANGE? Isn't there a readout on the EMM that tells you what track/format is being played? My players do. | |
| Saint-Saens: Symphony No. 3 "Organ" surround? I have lots and I would certainly put the Munch near the top along with its near contemporary, the Paray on MLP. | |
| Has the Oppo carried the AV industry? Wow, Avgoround. I've owned a half dozen Oppo players and never paid much attention to their video quality. What distinguishes them, imho, are their cutting-edge audio implementations (along with their customer service). | |
| Saint-Saens: Symphony No. 3 "Organ" surround? I prefer this one on all counts: http://www.sa-cd.net/showtitle/4356 | |
