Bluray Hi Rez audio

I essentially use my Oppo I use my Oppo 105 as a transport.  High Res and everything else except for SACD goes either Optical or SPDIF.  SACD have DSD outputted over HDMI to my Bryston DAC 3,

@dweller  I use AYON CD-5 for stereo and Anthem AVM 60 for multichannel processing. As pure stereo DAC OPPO is a little better then Anthem but in much lower league then AYON

I used to do it as well until I got Auralic Aries Femto, and difference in sound (via AES/EBU) was staggering. I was very surprised as I did not expect it to be that significant.

When I was looking into possibly getting an external DAC for my Oppo 105, I was under the impression (from the material I had read) that I couldn't output DSD from it.  Am I mistaken?

@billspecfoc I outputs DSD via HDMI for sure, but dunno via SPDIF. It does converts DSD to PCM, but conversion is not great quality IMHO.

This is so confusing to me. I think I'm going will end up using a Mac computer with Audirvana and just download the sacd files. I play then play them via usb through the Codex. At least I know what I have and what I can do lol
