Setting up OPPO BDP 103 with Marantz AV 7701

[Jack Cotrel]

just got the 7701 and would like to get some ideas on the optimum setup for both audio and video with the OPPO 103.

Run Audessey and see what it does. 7701 probably has better DACs than the 103, but I'd try analog and see how it sounds as well.

I would start w/ HDMI, then Audyssey like j_garcia says, then simply play with variations. Several options in cableing, but doubtful you can actually hear any difference. I would stay w/ simple.
