Why wouldn't I be able to use a 7.1 or in my case a 6.1 configuration with the OPPO93 and the Outlaw 975?

I would think the 975/7700 combo would be an excellent match and the 975 will come from the factory with the newest firmware installed. One drawback (if you use them) could be the inability to use the 7.1 outputs from the OPPO to input to the 975.

You can use 7.1 via HDMI but not the 7.1 analog outputs from the OPPO as the 975 does not have the corresponding analog inputs.

Thanks XM, so I will just be using an HDMI cable between the Oppo93 and the Outlaw975 for both Audio and video, correct.

Why wouldn't I be able to use a 7.1 or in my case a 6.1 configuration with the OPPO93 and the Outlaw 975? Based on what I am experiencing here you should be quite happy with the BDP-93, M-975 combination connected via HDMI. The one thing I have not tried but plan to is running analog out R & L only for the Pure Audio Mode. I am thinking I can go in through the AUX on the Outlaw unit separating the OPPO from its normal HDMI connection. Use the HDMI connection for disks and network media playback and then using the AUX I can have the Pure Audio Mode without changing connections. Hope this makes sense

Understand. What I did not understand is since the 975 has 7.1 outputs as the 990 why would I not get the same results?

I have the BDP-83 and I think it is the best player I have ever used. I have not read a single review that has not lauded the BDP-83 and any of its successors. Every review I have read about the 103 is stellar and it is likely the next player for me. I have used the analog outputs on my 83 along with the optical with great results so I guess we will just have to agree to disagree about the OPPOs performance. I forget that I have owned mine since day one so have gone through the full evolution newcomers to the BDP-103 have missed. I would have to check the receipt for the 103 for the exact date but I took delivery of mine in November 2012. They had their teething pains. As far as the DownMix modes of the BDP-103 (and 105 in some cases) OPPO agrees with me. If you review the firmware update history for the units you will find a large number dealing specifically with audio decoding issues. https://www.google.com/search?q=OPPO+BDP-103+downmix+issues&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8Here are some quick links on the topic with several pieces directly from OPPO digital. I think the OPPO is a great player and recommend one to any of my friends that are in the market for this type machine. All of that said it does not walk on water so in that regard we do disagree.

The 975 7.1 outputs are to feed to an amp and a subwoofer. The 990 has those and also 7.1 inputs which are analog. I had my OPPO connected to the 990 via the analog inputs because the 990 does not have HDMI. In your case you would connect the OPPO via HDMI to the 975 using one of its inputs probably BD. Then you connect the 975 outputs to the input of your amplifier(s) for as many channels you are using (6.1).
