I'm pretty sure that the Outlaw is the problem. As a test, set the Oppo to output LPCM.


Well that is a brilliant suggestion and it worked! No more snapping. Thanks!

So I believe this means the OPPO is decoding the audio and then the 976 takes care of all the delay, channel levels etc. or do those parameters have to be set in the OPPO? It also begs the questions: 1) Why the 976 can't handle bitstream audio? and 2) Does the OPPO decode better than the 976 or vise versa?

Thanks again!
