| Dedicated Red Book CD player vs. "Universal" type players.... This is a topic I've been thinking about just recently. While there are some dynamite universal players in the business (I have two and love them both), I still want to add a pure Red Book CD only player to my system. Looking now at various opti... | |
| Oppo BDP-103 vs UDP-203 audio only Thanks kurtis & mward for your input. Will look at the Oppo Sonica DAC and mward, you're right. Thanks. | |
| Oppo BDP-103 vs UDP-203 audio only Thanks folks. Greatly appreciate the feedback. I wasn't aware of the linear power supply upgrades. Will look into that. Thanks. Scorpio1951, you're so right that just because the specs show improvement, does't mean it sounds any better. Coul... | |
| New Marantz AV7703 missing an audio fomat OK many thanks for your feedback Yes the unit does display DTS Neural:X which then I'm taking from both theo and imhififan to be equivalent to Pl IIz. There is no actual selection for Pl IIz. | |
| which receiver new $1k or under Yes I agree with Auxinput especially when it comes to sources. Marantz CD/SACD players seem to be warmer and more musical than say Oppo Digital and even Rotel. I’ve had all brands and Marantz seems to really be built for the music. NAD also. Recei... | |
| Marantz UD5007, no more YouTube Well Auxinput, what can I say. You were 100% right and saved the day. So far so good on the Amazon unit. Loving it so far. Working great and as you stated above, the hi-res audio is darn good for such a small device. From not purchasing the Son... | |
| Marantz UD5007, no more YouTube OK many thanks Auxinput. I'm going to buy an Amazon FireTV device and try it out based on your excellent input. Will let you know. THANKS. | |
| Marantz UD5007, no more YouTube Thanks for the responses and recommendations. What I really want to continue doing is playing YouTube music videos and live band performances through my HT system. I'm not sure how great a Roku streaming device may sound plugged directly into my... | |
| Audioquest NIghthawk cables I had a 5 year old pair of RCA King Cobra interconnects that started failing. Had to jiggle them to get them to work.. Sent them back to AQ using their normal RMA process. They tested them and found nothing wrong. . Returned them. I tried them... | |
| Bowers&Wilkins ASW675 10" Sub, blown driver. Can't find anyone to repair it. How old is this sub? Who replaced the amp? Where are you located? I had to have my ASW-610 repaired this year. It was shipped back to B&W in MA by my local audio store. The main circuit board had to be replaced. If parts for your ASW675... | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question I couldn't agree with you more Erik. I'm sticking with my 103. Should OPPO decide to add those streaming services to the firmware of the 203 in the future, then I'll consider upgrading. Thanks. | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question Yes it seems the UDP-203 does not have HDCD decoding and capability. Looks like OPPO dropped out this feature. My BDP-103 has it. | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question Thanks everyone for your excellent input. I wasn't aware of the external Roku devices that can be used to access streaming services. Also I reread the specs on the Oppo BD-103 and it has 4K video upscaling. So won't really need the UDP-203 as i... | |
| The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question Today I called OPPO Digital directly at their main U.S. headquarters and spoke with someone in Tech Support. He did confirm that the new UDP-203 will not be released with streaming services such as YouTube, Netflix, Hulu , etc. They have no plan... | |
| Oppo 103 firmware I just updated mine today and now the YouTube search screen is too large. The search field is out of view and I've tried every possible video setting in the main menu. It's not a video setting in the TV (Sony LCD) but something in the player itse... |
