I have an Oppo 103 but never use it for redbook. Only HT Video. I use to. But after much experimentation I discovered ripping CDs using db Poweramp to lossless FLAC. Then playing back the files using a PC running JRIver fed through USB to an outboard DAC made even a player as good as the OPPO sound bad. Even when I ran the Oppo through the same outboard DAC.
