OPPO 105 VS Schiit Gungnir


I know it's sort of a lame question. That being said, the reason I ask, is I was going to buy a used Schiit, but saw a nice price on a used OPPO 105, and began to think about how much more I could do with the OPPO ( just audio no home theater ).

I was just wondering how much difference there would be between the two. I would assume that the Schitt Gungnir should be better, but how much ??

Thanks for any help.

I own both.  No comparrison the Gumby is much better.  Sorry but disagree with using the 105 to stream or serve.  Get a used Node 2 for streaming into the Gumby.  Again so much better than streaming with the 105.  Plus you have access to more streaming services.  With the 105, only Tidal.

Just so happens I own the Ares II also.  At first I liked it more than the Gumby.  Then I changed things around a little bit and now I'm using it in a headphone system with a Schiit HP amp and liking the Gumby a little bit more.  Bottom line' they're very close and can be system dependent like everything else.  I think they're both a great value and that one can be happy with either.
