| Oppo 105 favoring one channel @jeffseight Good to hear that. The 105 is a forever piece for me. Until it isn't. But until then it is. | |
| Oppo 105 favoring one channel @designsfx @knighttodd Thanks for the remote and set-up suggestion. I'lll lug the unit to the closest tv and use the visual interface to adjust balance and such. Oppo stopped providing firmware years ago, but their app still works on Apple dev... | |
| Oppo 105 favoring one channel Yes, switched those cables, too. Still the same result. I also swapped R and L speakers and the sound stayed on the right. Again, this phenomenon is NOT present when I'm running analog. | |
| Oppo 105 favoring one channel Hey Erik. Yes, I tried crossing the speaker cables and the sound migrated accordingly to the left | |
| Do the original JM Reynaud Bliss hold up today? Are you kidding? These are wonderful speakers. I would out them up with Triangle Comete Esprit or some Revel | |

| christmas music @cd318 Thanks for resurrecting this thread. What other good recordings made since the OP 2007 can people offer for perusal? I just picked up the Eddie Higgins Trio's Christmas Songs (2004), an immaculate Venus pressing, that's been spinning a lot ... | |
| Are solo efforts ever better? I would push back and vouch for Sting's solo career. The Police were The Police and no one can ever take their genius and influence away from them, but Sting has managed to carve out a memorable and influential solo career more successful and deep... | |
| A light-hearted essay on loving music vs the audiophilia obsession Very fun to read and to feel the empathy! You put into more words the adage that many audiophiles use music to listen to their system. And you also nailed how Audiogon (and USAM) completely enable many of us, as you wrote, go from recreationally u... | |
| What's the oddest thing in your music collection? @mceljo Nice. I just found them on Tidal | |
| What's the oddest thing in your music collection? @dekay Fascinating! Could you post an image? | |
| What's the oddest thing in your music collection? This Sounds in Space vinyl used as packing material for another album I ordered off of Discogs. I cleaned it up and it sounds phenomenal! |
