Replaced the Oppo 103 with a Panasonic UB9000 and currently using the balanced connections for 2ch.
Just cruising with Dwight Yokum, Clint Black and Brooks and Dunn CD's. Great sound stage for initial impression.....if you like that kind of country
Tomorrow I'm going to throw my Judas Priest "Sad Wings Of Destiny" CD at it, that ought to shock the whole system

The UB900 was just about as good (for 2 channel audio). In fact, I play my FLAC files via the USB input to utilize the DSP modes.Yamaha RX-A2050 AVR (5.0.2); LG OLED77C2 4K TV(4) Polk Monitor 10B's w/SoniCaps, Mills, and RDO-194 tweets (R/L F/R)(2) Polk RC80i (Top Middle)Polk CS300 center channelAnalog: B&O TX2 Turntable, Nakamichi Cassette Deck 1Digital: Pioneer CLD-99 Elite LD, Panasonic DMP-UB900 UHD Blu-RayBedroom: Arylic Up2Stream AMPv3 driving Polk Monitor 4's w/peerless tweets
