OPPO 103 or OPPO 95?


Which would you get? A used OPPO 95 or a new OPPO 103?

Thanks for your response. I am reinvigorated due to changes to my ht/music system. I recently bought a integer dhc 9.9 pre-amp, an outlaw 7100 amp (for 5.1) listening and just got a cambridge audio id100 for my iPod. I use uncompressed files. I used to do probably 80/20 movie/radio to music but with the changes it is now 60/40 at most. I bought used gear and this is my first time with separates. I will change things as I can but right now I am re-listening to music and the id100 using a 75 ohm coax and the built in 9.9 dac is amazing. So I want to get a blue ray/player for movies and cd’s and i have a few sacd’s I want to listen to. That is why the issue between the 95 or 103. I understand the 95 can do sacd on either hdmi out but not so with the 103. I love watching movies and blue ray concerts too. Jeff Beck live at ronnies is one of my favs. So anyway after this longwinded response I look forward to any response. Oh, I am looking to maybe get a dac for the id100 after the oppo. Any recommendations would be appreciated there also.

For me saying the 9.9 dacs are amazing is that compared to what I was using they are. Its like my 1st car, ’69 rambler with 3 on the tree. Any car that had ac and a radio was amazing!! I am looking/thinking about a dac for the id100 at a later date. What I understand about the 103 is that that the sacd signal can only be used on one hdmi channel? I am sure I am over thinking this and I agree about the warranty. Thx for the input so far.
