Due to finances I was using my Oppo 105 for all music format listening via the variable VC
I finally dusted off my highly moded Pioneer PD 65 (>10 yo) which blew away the 105
Then I got a deal on an Audio Alchemy DAC/PRE (just for the pre) but after awhile I deiced to try the internal DAC. Both the dac and pre are truly amazing
he 105 is relegated to SACD/DVD-A. Alas, my Pioneer lens came out the other day, so I went back to the 105 for redbook. Total disappointment
