I have no love for the Oppo. If you like your digital to sound like digital that’s the one for you.
My suggestion is get rid of the transport period. Load all your cds into a Blue sound Vault 2. It sounds better than my Oppo 105D. Plus now you have all your music accessible from your iPhone or iPad. Then if you want to really bump up the performance, add a Chord Hugo. The Bluesound has a digital out so no problem.
The Hugo is really small so space will be no problem, plus you basically get a free headphone amp with an awesome dac. No fancy power cord is needed so you get to save some dollars there.
Btw, the Bluesound is very compact as well measuring approximately 8X8X4 inches with 2 TB storage.
This will be my primary playback source for my new summer home.
Approximate pricing, Vault 2 new 1299.00, Hugo used 1100.00.
