Hi Bestsound, I use also an Eclipse with powerlink to my BL 50. I have also an Oppo 203 with digital coax cable connected. I f I compare sound quality when listening to music from these two sources I feel that the Oppo with digital connection (DLNA music) have slightly deeper and more detailed sound vs the Eclipse with powerlink connection (when listening to the same DLNA music).

Best regards

If you like the sound of the 5s more, then you have the option of running the sound profile of the 5s on the 50s. 
It really adds a little more punch to these great speakers. I like that personally and I called this loudspeaker group Party!

I agree.

My BL50’s are connected to my Harmony.

I have increased the input level on the Harmony sound centre with 3db when streaming from Deezer via the B&O app to the Harmony.

In comparison the input is set at 0db for following sources:

- HDMI from ATV connected to my Harmony

- Airplay to the Harmony

- Deezer app on/from LG webOS

Hello, Martin

I have stored my CDs as FLAC lossless on a server and play exactly like you DLNA from either Oppo or Eclipse.

You are right about the sound is more "high end" from the Oppo digital out, but I also experiences playing the CD itself in the Oppo player, the sound significantly improve over the DLNA.

Have you try comparing between CD direct/DLNA, could actually be interesting to know if you would experience the same.

It is a somewhat tedious problem which is probably difficult to explain or do something about.
