Which dac set did you think has best SQ? I'm going to replace my OPPO 105 with either a 203 or 205, depending on whether or not the 976 dacs are as good as or better than the 205.
Anyone else done the dac comparison?


I have a UDP-203 and it would be an interesting comparison between it and the 976. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do not think the 976's PEQ function is applied to the 7.1 direct input and PEQ used in conjunction with REW was a big selling point for me. My UMIK-1 mic arrived this week and I hope to use it and REW to check out my room's deficiencies. If the measurements show my room isn't a problem I'd be willing to break out the extra cables and give the 203 a listen.
