When I first installed the Oppo BDP-105D in my system it sounded different than my April Music Eximus DP1 DAC. However, I'm used to its sound quality now and I like it a whole lot. The impression I have about my BDP-105D is that it might have been "voiced" to sound like a "tube" component because it seems to soften and smooth out the highs, especially with 16/44 Redbbook CDs. In my opinion it makes them sound more like analog.
I'm not familiar with the sound of the BDP-103, but one of the major differences between the 103 and 105 is that the 105 has a dedicated two channel stereo analog section with both balanced and unbalanced outputs. As a result, the 105 is supposed to sound better than the 103. However, you would really have to compare the two in order to determine the extent of the difference.
