Thanks, Bill.
Yes, I'm still well within the 30-day limit. My order date was March 4th. I'm still trying to make up my mind. I have never in my life bought something with the intention of returning it. However, I guess there is always a first time.
Thanks again,
John Elison
Hi John,Just in case you missed something, this is a quick list of the adjustments I made to my player to get it 2CH stereo ready;
Pure Audio Mode always in use
Audio Play Mode always off
Auto Resume always off
Coaxial/Optical Output set to 192k LPCM
HDCD Decoding on
SACD set to DSD
Secondary Audio Off
HDMI Audio Off
Dynamic Range Control Off
DTS Neo:6 Mode Off
Output Volume set to Fixed
Stereo Signal set to Down-mix Stereo
Standby Mode set to Quick Start
Front Panel Brightness Off
If others have more adjustments please speak up or if you think I've made any errors please reply. Also remember this is optimized for a 2 channel single ended stereo system with the use of a preamp and no video concerns. I would imagine the use of balanced outputs would sound even better in some systems. Even more so a direct input to an amp would be more pure and was stated so in a few reviews I read, but both reviews warned the impedance match was important to note if you go direct. To which I have yet to try, as I like what the tubes in my preamp do. ;)John, I hope this helps...but if not, it sounds like you are already very happy with your current digital set up. It just goes to show us, a perfect fit for all is not always the case and in the example of the Oppo 105 the home trial return policy is a nice option to have.
Regards,
Bill

Do you havea Speaker Configuration Crossover Hz setting? I have a model 93 set to 80Hz.
I assume that is only for the subwoofer low-pass filter. My 105 arrived set to 80-Hz. Its lowest setting is 40-Hz. I don't use the subwoofer output so I assume it doesn't matter where it's set.
Best regards,
John Elison.
