+1 to what @gdhal said. I recently purchased the UDP-205 and love it. This review should certainly help you: https://gavinsgadgets.com/2017/10/22/oppo-udp-205-4k-ultra-hd-audiophile-blu-ray-player-audio-review... |
I recall reading that thoughts - in general - are very favorable for upgrading from 105 to 205. I never had an Oppo product until the 205, so I cannot provide comparison info from first hand experience. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/149-blu-ray-players/2821841-official-oppo-udp-205-uhd-blu-ray-player-o... |
Analog audio is distinctly superior with the 205, but it doesn’t provide the 105 services like Netflix, Berlin Philharmonic, etc., and it is more glitch prone with DirecTV. I plan to use my 205 for Blu-ray and UHD, my 105 for DirecTV, Netflix, and Berlin Philharmonic. By taking optical from the 105 through an Ayre QX-5 Twenty Digital Hub, audio should at least equal that of the 205. This is written in future tense, because shortly after I installed the QX-5 it went silent and is now with Ayre. db |
