In effect, the 205 becomes the distributing processor, replacing the SP3.

Yes, the Oppo becomes a distributor processor replacing the SP3. To select which source you are seeing, you just change the input on the Oppo using the Oppo remote.
You would select input named "HDMI- IN" to watch cable or the input named "Blu-Ray" to watch a disc.
By the way, the Oppo also has digital outputs (coaxial and optical) that you can connect directly to the Ayre QX-5/20 instead of using balanced analog from the Oppo.
