Oppo 105 has no fan. The video side of it is much better than the 95. The sound play back (CD/SACD) is -as I understand about the same may be just a small amount better if any(Minus the fan noise). I have a Modded 95 from The Upgrade Co. and like it a lot. Depending on how hot your room is to start with will effect it also. Mine comes on about the 3rd or 4th CD in a row I play. If I play it loud I do not here it when the music is playing unless I sit right on top of it. I also find that the XLR out work best for music over the HDMI out.
