I got it instead of Oppo 105.
You can also burn DVD-A Discs with Hi-Rez Files, I use "Burn".
Haven't made direct comparison, just another way to listen to HiRez.

  That Marantz's build quality is nothing special. Compared against an Oppo BDP-105 it looks pretty lame. That cheap chassis is one telling clue...

    Hi agree completely there is no doubt about the quality of the Oppo 105
    But i was wondering if, even considering the risk of a failure in the cheap drive, a cheaper blue ray player could work fine as a streamer
    I can run an ethernet cable from my router so wi-fi is not needed
    A good audio only streamer easily cost > 1000 USD and streams only audio
    And often needs an additional DA converter
    From what i understand the audio/video circuitry of many BR players gives excellent performance both with audio and video
    I will try one ... i like Panasonic units but also Sony.
    Thanks again.
    
    Kind regards,
