Late to the party here, but I think you've got it backwards on the Wadia interface - using the L/R analog outputs utilizes the $0.10 DAC in the Wadia, but digital out bypasses it and send it unscathed (jitter not withstanding) to the higher-quality DAC of your choice (kind of the whole point of buying the Wadia, if you ask me).
Oppo 95 setup question -- complete Noob question
Ok, so this big bad boy showed up yesterday and I have it unpacked and ready to go. I read through the manual today but am a bit confused on the setup for my system.
I will use the 5.1 analog inputs to my Rotel receiver (no HDMI inputs). What do I do for audio as I want to take advantage of the good DACs, obviously. Two channel analog or do the 5.1 analog cables take care of it? I think I know the answer (2-channel analog separate from the 5.1 analog), but I want to be sure. I'll definitely need better analog cables for the 2-channel if that's the answer...
Thanks for your help on this terribly dumb question.
