Forgive me if this information is located somewhere in this thread, but I would really like to get some clarification before purchasing an Oppo 105.


Does the Oppo 105 upsample audio or play it natively? I plan to use the usb dac with my computer and wanted to make sure 44.1 is played natively at 44.1, 96 is played natively at 96, etc. etc. I understand the bit processing is done at 32 bits and I'm fine with that.


How does the volume control function in relation to output level? Does the volume range go from 0-100 in .5dB step intervals? For example, if I turned the volume down to 80 on the volume control would the volume be -10dB from max volume? the reason I ask is I plan to use the balanced outputs and want to reduce the gain with the volume control to better match the balanced inputs on my preamp. 4.4 volts is too hot for my preamp.


Finally, my last question, does it display the sample rate of audio on the player display or only if you have a monitor attached?


Any and all input is appreciated.

I have a question regarding the use of the split HDMI outs. I understand the general theory of keeping things separate anytime possible. Separating audio & video from inside the player, turning off video functions within the player while listening to music, etc.My question is how much difference will it actually make using one HDMI out for video direct to my projector & the other for audio to the processor?


The reason i ask is that I play a lot of Bluray & DVD-Audio music only discs where it's important to be able to access the menus without having to turn on my projector. I want to be able to connect a 7" monitor with HDMI input to view the menus on these discs. I am using a Lexicon MC-12HDEQ processor which only has 1 HDMI out. i need this HDMI for those times I view TiVo as it runs to the Processor. If I use 1 HDMI out or the 105 for both Audio & Video I could then use HDMI 2 to go direct into that 7" monitor, thus being able to view the menus when necessary. As it stands now, using the split HDMI I'm unable to do that. If I keep it this way I will have to run the processor out to the monitor....then disconnect it & place back into the projector when i want to watch TiVo. Not a convenient solution at all.


I am all about optimizing for the best possible audio & video but this issue has me really thinking hard about the true value of using the split HDMI in the 105.


Thanks for any input.

It does not technically upsample, but you are getting some amount of padding to the signal as the player is using 32-bit processing to the signal, so the bitrate is always "enhanced" when using the analog outputs.

I do not know the maximum dB of the player, so I really do not have a good answer for you. But the player uses .5dB increments with each VOL press of the player. I would just lower the volume to 1 and go from there and figure out what works for your system. If you find that 1 is too much, then put in some attenuators in-line to reduce the voltage even further.

You will need a display.

As long as the receiver is set to do no video processing, or the output of the player is the same output resolution of the receiver, you should not really need to worry about the receiver doing any kind of incorrect video processing to the signal. It is pretty safe to connect the player through the receiver for video in this kind of configuration.

Thanks for the response. What is the volume scale? 1-100 or 1-10 or some other relative scale?

Got to go with Jeff here. I work in software and there's always a list of problems. Definitely will prioritize with customer feedback.
I too am a software developer. I'm also one of the Oppo beta testers. I can assure you that Neuromancer's statements are entirely accurate. Just because some companies work on things based on how loud people yell doesn't mean that every company has to (or should) work that way.



Please don't make Bob hit his head against the wall again - we need him over in beta test land

Aremoving power cord from motorola VIP1600 for ten seconds and reconnecting solved the issue this time.

This is not an Oppo issue, it's a Moto cable box issue... I had the same issue when connecting my Moto set top box to the 3D inputs on my AVM 50v. Did a ton of research on the issue, and it's a long standing issue. The Moto boxes (and some others) simply can't HTCP with some 3D devices... particularly when that device is between the Moto box and the final display device, which is why I think some people blame the Oppo, or the processor, when the issue is really the cable box.

THx Neuromancer. I suspected as much but wanted to be sure I wasnt missing anything. The Lexicon will simply pass the video thru.

Who's being loud? Not sure what the big deal is. I suspect that Oppo indeed prioritizes based on consumer feedback. Anyways, I politely sent Oppo a message about the problem, and they promptly sent an email back, said they are aware of the problem and working on it.

I am playing an HDCD encoded CD (Aaron Neville "Gospel Roots") and HDCD decoding is turned on in the player. But the Disc Info still says 'Stereo 44.1k 16b'. I thought it would say 'Stereo 44.1k 20b'.  How would i know the 105 is sending 20-bit stream to my pre-pro(Anthem D2v)?

The disc info refers to the data coming OFF the disc. HDCD is 2.0 LPCM 44.1 KHz 16-bit data matrix encoded to contain 20-bit data dynamic range (at the expense of raising the noise floor). What's coming OFF the disc is unchanged by whether HDCD decoding is engaged or not.

Don't know about a light, but the main display highlights the "HDCD" title. Is that what you were referring to?
