How is the Oppo 983H as a 2ch Music Transport?


Hello,

Im thinking of buying an Oppo 983H player as a transport
on 2ch via the dig out to my Theta Dac/Sonic Frontiers
jitterbug system. Also I will use the analog outputs for SACD playback.
How does this player compare to older transports like
the Cal Delta or Theta Data basic?
Or how would it compare to a Rotel 1072 as a Transport?

Thanks,

I have both the 983H and the CAL Delta transport and they both sound the same to my CAL Alpha DAC. But the 983H has a better interface than the Delta, is well-built, and plays DVD's better than any other player that I've ever experienced (and is about equal to Oppo's Blu-Ray player for that purpose). The 983H is an excellent DVD player that plays just about anything that's round and shiny, and I continue to use mine even though I have Oppo's Blu-Ray player as well.
