Bought my 105 about 2 years ago. It was actually my first blu-ray player. Until I purchased it, my only source for music was CD and FM, so it opened up my music possibilities ( Pandora, Network to my PC, Hi-Res via USB, CD, etc.) Plus Netflix for movies. And it sounds and looks good with everything. So for me, it was a good buy. Because of all the good reviews on it's analog performance, I think some people are tempted to buy it and use it as just a CD player. But this machine is meant to be hooked up to a display to get the most out of it.
