Happy Fathers Day guys!

That’s a big system in that room. Wow!

Nope. All I have is an OPPO 103 and a 105D.

Received and installed the OPPOMod i2S card in my OPPO103. Set the card and my Premier Digital Director i2S config to PS Audio. Fired up an SACD and only have sound from the right channel. After reseating the cables multiple times, triple checking the pin settings on the card and...
