Brad my system is currently in the process of an overhaul and not set up. Just when I thought digital was bad enough with transports, DAC's, Jitter devices and external power supplies along comes Home Theatre. Imagine trying to bi-amp 7 channels with mono blocks, never mind all the sources and processors. Does any one use expensive after market power cords through out an all out Home Theatre system? I hope that Fire Wire will work for audiophiles. Stop the madness.
