When I first bought my Oppo BDP-105D I didn't like it that much. I had been using a $3200 April Music Eximus DP1 DAC and the DP1 really sounded accurate and transparent. The Oppo impressed me as if it were voiced to sound like a tube component. It didn't reproduce my digital copies of vinyl accurately but it seemed to make CDs sound smoother and more pleasing. However, bass was not as deep and tight as I'd like. When I bought the TASCAM DA-3000 for the primary purpose of recording vinyl LPs, I discovered it sounded just like the Eximus DP1 DAC with respect to accuracy, transparency and tight, deep bass. That's when I decided to try it as a digital player and I have yet to discover anything negative about its sound quality. Of course, it might not be everyone's preference. YMMV
