XLO Digital cable TYPE 4.1
p.s. I suggest you compare 3 brands of cables. This is a manageable amount. Perhaps one of the regulars here has a third suggestion, or Robert will certainly hav a good recommendation. 
XLO Digital cable TYPE 4.1
I owned the XLO for a year, and found that it was good, but a little "grainy". The Ensemble "Digiflux" is way smoother, and the Harmonic Technology Cyberlink Copper has a very similar voicing but is far cleaner for the same amount of money (under ...

NAD dvd-the new one vs Pionner Elite 37
The Pioneer DV-37 is worth waiting for and checking out. I have owned Panasonics', Yamahas', Denons'and Sonys' top of the line machines and a Pioneer DV-05. The Pioneer had the most filmlike picture and the best audio. Go to www.e-town.com, click ...

Best Sony DVDplayer for music?
Wait for the new DVP-9000ES. It has a 12 bit video DAC and SACD capability for under $1500. I found that my Pioneer DV-05 sounds better than my Sony DVP-7700. 
Anyone seen/heard new Denon DVD-3300?
I could be wrong, but isn't Denons' DVD player really a sourced Panasonic with different badging? 
optical vs. digital vs. analog HT hookup
For 5.1 you need a digital cable. Don't waste your time with opticals, there have been dozens of posts going into it before. Just buy a coax. They have nothing to do with your video signal. Try both the Parasound and the DVD player, and pick the w... 
SACD vs DVD audio vs 24/96..??
Sony has a new DVD player to be released soon, the DVP-9000ES will have a 12 bit video DAC, progressive scan, AND.... SACD for under $1500. I wouldn't mind DVD-A capability (even if inferior to SACD), if only for the eventual availability of more ...

Pioneer DV-37 vs. Sony DVP-9000ES
Any one out there seen the new Sony DVD-9000ES yet? 
DVD Player that sounds right
Wait to check out Sony's new DVP-9000ES, it will include SACD for under $1500. The new Pioneer DV-37 is a major contender as well. I have owned 5 diferent brands of DVD players and must say that the Pioneer had the beter sound IMO. 
Pioneer DV-37 vs. Sony DVP-9000ES
Thanks Humby88, The key word in your post is NOW. We don't have crystal balls to predict the future, but if there is eventually a good selection (if not great) of SACD's it sure would be very nice to have the sound quality of the SACD format as an... 
Sunfire Cinema Gr.opinions wanted, pls
Check Audioreview.com, search for reviews. I remember some complaints about the Sunfire being noisy. You should find 10-20 reviews by owners there. 
Most cost effective room treatment?
Try carpet and curtains first. The improvements are not subtle. I recently changed from a light weight curtain to an extra light weight curtain. I immediately had bad reflections all over the 12 X 20 room. It sounded like a room before you move in...
