Some don't like the Sabre chip (in unmodded form) in the BDP-105.  For the money the Oppo is an excellent DAC and player for audio and video.  The BDA-2 for PCM playback is on a different level in my opinion.  I like Oppo for video purposes.  I have two 103Ds in different systems, a BDP-93, a modded BDP-83, a BDP-93 and even have an old DV-980H which is in the same system as one of the 103Ds for region free DVD playback if I need it.

So There

Phil, I have an Oppo 105 and BDA-2, and you're absolutely right. There's a huge difference in articulation and smoothness, the BDA-2 being much more analogue in character. I use the Oppo as an AV Swiss Army Knife, and it's an excellent device. Of course, the BDA is twice the cost . . . and worth every penny.
