tweak in review question

Hi, I am usually lurking over at the vinyl asylum where I occasionally post, or in the PC asylum where I have not posted.

I bought the Oppo 105 last fall and I am always interested in John's posts so I have been following this thread with great interest.

I reread the TNT review and was curious about benefit of covering the coax output if it is not being used -- from the review:

"I also experimented with a terminator for the coaxial digital output. This likes to see a 75ohm load, and can sometimes be noisy when left open. Since it is located directly under the audiophile stereo board the effect could be bigger than usual. I tried this and indeed could hear a very slight improvement in the sound. I left it in for the duration of the review."

Have others tried this? Results? What sort of terminator would do?

Thanks, Stephanie
