| Just Got My Oppo 205! Guys, You really need to get at least 200 hours of play time on the Oppo 205 before it makes its magic (put it on repeat non stop for 10 days straight). Then it will be really good.....not great, but really good. Modified, it is really out there... | |
| Oppo exploring additional production of UDP 205 The 205 is a major improvement for audio. I have listened to every Oppo made and modified them all. The 205, after 200 hours burn in is simply way, way better than any Oppo before and good enough to go in a high end system and be enjoyed. Not s... | |
| Has Anyone Auditioned an LKS MH-DA004 DAC? And this is with a stock LKS. Modified it is mucho better. Modded Oppo Sonica DAC even slightly better.....now I will finish the Oppo 205 mods.....that will, I am pretty sure, be as good as the Sonica. Good time for great digital sound without spe... | |

| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? Well, the Yggy is the Gumby's bigger brother. A modded Yggy is better yet. People have upgraded from Gumby to Yggy and are very happy. But they have not heard these new less expensive toys.....and these better sounding cheaper units are more ve... | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? Wow, things change fast. My friend got in the $1600 LKS MH-DA004 DAC and cold out of the box it beat his modified Yggy. Now he has modded the LKS (with my instructions) and he says its as good as his $20,000 turntable system and that is playing ... | |
