In Reply to: RE: OPPO 105 and external DAC posted by John Elison on April 30, 2017 at 17:57:32
John,
I had seen that. Not knowing much about digital I assumed It would not be an improvement over the DAC in the 105. Wrong assumption?
Follow Ups:
Probably not an unreasonable assumption but hard to tell w/o actually trying.My Oppo HA-1 DAC/Headphone Amp sounded a little lean or on the cool side and possibly a little bright compared to my other DACs including the PS Audio NuWave DSD, Mytek Stereo192-DSD, and the Ayre QB-9 DSD DAC.
For a more full-bodied sound I really like the PS Audio NuWave DSD DAC.
The Oppo HA-1 made me gun shy on buying Oppo BD players or their new Sonica DAC. I may still try the Sonica DAC someday.

Thanks for the ideas. It looks like the PS Audio is no longer in production.
Do they have a Boulder store?
It's quite possible that it's been recently discontinued since they just came out with their Stellar DAC/preamp combo.
I don't think PS Audio has a store but I know they have their 'factory' right there in Boulder. They have an online store and a number of dealers carry their products.
