Hi fsmithjack, It is designed to be user-upgradeable and very easy. Here is the link to the Vanity 103HD DoP board that Ted uses: http://www.jvbdigital.nl/jvb.asp?cur=2&level=sdi&page=title&title=924 The following information is under the comments tab: "The installation of the Vanity103HD module is very easy and fully reversible. No soldering or back panel drilling is necessary. Module is designed to simply replace the original analog output board of the OPPO BDP-103." "The Vanity103HD DoP module has selectable SACD playback when in DoP mode. DoP stands for "DSD over PCM" and this method allows to send raw DSD stream in standard 24bit PCM frames at 176.4kHz over SPDIF. More details about the method can be found here: http://dsd-guide.com/sites/default/files/white-papers/DoP_openStandard_1v1.pdf" If you buy one, let us know how you like it! |

This looks awesome - OK so to summarize so I buy the
Oppo BDP-103
and this board the Vanity 103HD DoP board and install it myself then just use it as a cd transport? Any cable recommended with this combo to connect this to my Bricasti M1SE? Can it play other stuff like stream files or anything like that? I stream files and with my digital stuff I have listed below and I still use JRiver 21 because I think it sound better than the Auralic DS Lightning App but I have nothing to spin CD's on and what I have is decent / competent but I can't help but think there are some better options out there and I would like to try some discs. What do you think? Thanks Auralic Aries w/ Duel Femto Clocks Stereophile CLASS A (Japan) SBooster BOTW Linear Pwr. Supply ( for Auralic Aries ) (Netherlands)
