Gz3827: Regarding #2, the Seagate connects to the Oppo 105 via the USB port. 
From separates to reciever?
I also have gone from separates to an integrated amplifier. If this is a 2 channel audio system, I would strongly suggest an integrated amplifier. In my home theater system, I am using the Ayre AX-7e integrated amplifier and not a receiver. If you... 
Pioneer Elite BDP-33FD upgrade crashed my unit
Pioneer emailed me that they are sorry to hear of the problem I am having with my BDP33FD. However, Pioneer does not have known issues of the bluray firmware update for the BDP33FD that can cause the bluray player to fail if performed correctly. S... 
Pioneer Elite BDP-33FD upgrade crashed my unit
Hevac1: Thanks for the great suggestion to download the older software version. I have given up on my Pioneer BDP-33FD blu ray player and will spend no more time with it. I have already purchased the Sony BDP-S790 Blu Ray player and it is much bet... 
Class A integrated Luxman L590AX vs Accuphase e560
I own the Luxman L-590ax integrated amplifier and like it very much. For me, the music is fuller, has more detail and has great bass control. I am hearing many more things than I did with the Ayre AX-7e amp (previous amp). The mid range is outstan... 
Pioneer Elite BDP-33FD upgrade crashed my unit
As noted above, I emailed Pioneer Customer Support today notifying them of these firmware upgrade issues. I know the warranty is long past but Pioneer should repair my unit for free since their firmware upgrade crashed my unit. My unit should last...

Hevac1: Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried copying the firmware upgrade to my computer and then to a CD. It stopped working after 45% of the install was completed. I tried this method twice using two different disks and got the same result... 
Has anyone bought the OPPO 105 and has an opinion
Tubegroover: Thanks for your comments. I agree that comparing side by side is the only way to decide but I am not going to do that. I am going to keep my Ayre CX-7eMP and listen to the music. The Ayre sounds very good to my ears.

Whmuckley & Melm: Thank you for your comments on the Oppo 105. I assumed the Ayre would sound better but, based on the above, maybe not. The Oppo 105 looks very interesting. Does any one else have a comment on the Oppo 105? 
Has anyone bought the OPPO 105 and has an opinion
Does the Oppo 105 sound better than my Ayre CX-7eMP? Several people at THE Show suggested I get the Oppo 105. I cannot believe the 105 sounds better than the Ayre. Any comments? 
Has anyone bought the OPPO 105 and has an opinion
Do I need an external monitor when using the Oppo 105? I will be using it in a two channel system (no video) and am hoping its regular screen is okay. Any other comments on the Oppo 105? 
Any Comments on Mola-Mola audio electronics
Guido : I have no information on how the Mola-Mola internal design may differ from other Ncore NC1200 implementations. It is a good question to ask. 
Best alternative w/digtal inputs to Ayre QB-9 DAC?
Correction. It should be Ayre QB-9 DAC connectivity requirements. 
Best alternative w/digtal inputs to Ayre QB-9 DAC?
I suggest you call Neutrik and see if they can help you with your Ayre QB-8 DAC connectivity requirements. I did and they helped me go from a XLR 110 ohm to a BNC 75 ohm connection (Ayre CD player to DAC). Their device worked perfectly.See:http://...
