Is dedicated PreAmp with Oppo 105 needed?


I think I've a decent HT setup but still feel there's something missing. I watch movies 70% & listen to music 30%.

Since Oppo provides pretty clean sound, wondering if upgrading to a dedicated PreAmp will make any difference. If it does, what would you recommend in say $1000-$2000 range? I intend to bypass the Video & connect straight to my Plasma on HDMI 1.4a.

Thank you!

Apologies for reviving this old thread, but I was very interested in the Krell S1200 mod that Auxinput suggested. Unfortunately the links to the pictures of the mod are no longer working. Any chance of posting these somewhere again? Thanks!
