You really should check out the Krell DVD Standard, it has the Faroudja DCDi chipset and the most film-like picture I have ever seen from DVD. It is really stunning.
Best DVD source under 10K Theatris or ayre D1x ?
I have a home theater set up with four martin Logan requests the center channel ,and two additional rear surround scripts .I am running the theta casablanca 2 with the Krell home theater standard 5 channel and a krell fcb300 for the main amp .I am looking to get a high end DVD source that has software and hardware upgradeabilty and the best possible picture for under 10 K .I have a sharp 9000u right now but plan to upgrade to a 3 gun system in the near future .I have heard about both the Ayre D1x with the vr2 processor upgrade and also the brand new Theatris .They both have info on their own websites but I wanted to get some real world opinions .Any advice would be greatly appreciated .Thanks Bill
