Oppo 205 DAC
It ain't the chip but how it's used.All you have to do is listen. Ignore the rest.Better off with no "chip." 
Can I Re-Terminate HDMI cable?
With specialty tooling. Morrow doesn’t even bother with it. "Worth it" is relative.Have at it:. https://youtu.be/IrNk85K4Zbo 
Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what?
@erikt   You got it right. Class does or soon enough will only mean something to nit (or is it zit?) pickers.

No. There are enough nostalgia freaks around to keep most anything alive.Well, maybe not buggy whips or car phones.Some people still put on snow tires every winter.It's worth it to them to waste long green for .5% better performance that they do n...

Admirable pursuit. I hope you have a quality ADC. 
Dolby Atmos - is it for Audiophiles?
The answer is Apple is not for audiophiles.Why waste your time?

5.1 rears are just that. Avoid the sides because that was not the mixers intention. 
AudioGD R8 MAk2 dac update
Nice engineering.The best DACs are FPGA.  This is combined it with a resistor ladder for $1800.Every input including i2s.Probably the best bang/$ out there in '21 
Need a DAC Recommendation.
Used just gets you old tech.Forget the Schiit if you want to play DSD. 
Tube buffer in tape loop@
