| Oppo Blu-ray ??? 1. No comment on my preferences until I publish review.2. Don't know about video files; I never use them. The manual does refer to playing music, movie and photo files from the USB port.3. Will check on the the repeat function but the remote has b... | |
| Oppo Blu-ray ??? Yes. OTOH, that is more a function of the preamp/processor than it is of the player.Kal | |

| anyone else hate locking RCAs? I dislike RCAs and friction-fit connectors, in general. That is why I use balanced XLRs as much as possible. Clicks in positively. Push release and pull out. EZ.Kal | |
| mcintosh amps any one can explain impedance taps It matches the output impedance to the speaker's impedance. In theory, such a match affords better performance and power transfer.Kal |
