Very much appreciate the responses, thanks guys!
Ideally I would use the analog outs, in other words the OPPO dac, not an external dac. Seems a shame to pay for the DAC and not make use of it. Otherwise why not just get a pure streaming device?
I expect to use wired ethernet connection to NAS and USB to external drives.
I don't care so much about the video performance, I am sure I will be thrilled with it from an OPPO.
I would not expect to use the HDMI audio outs although I would expect to use the stereo digital outs for experimentation with external dacs.
I do have DFS files and expect to have even more as I digitize my LP collection.
I understand the need for subjective descriptions of audio characteristics. We simply do not have natural language to describe audio listening experience in rigorous mathematical terms.
I don't use a smart-phone but I may have to cave on that hold-out. It is understandable that there would be no 6 inch square color screen on the video player itself.
best,
ken
