| Anything better than Proceed? That's great news that the Perpetual tech upsampler works well with the Cal SSP-2500, I will try one. I was considering the 2500 series dvd player since it also upsamples but really wanted to hold out for one that did dvd-a as well. Do you won the... | |
| Cheater plugs with amplifiers? Yes, Dekay. Different grounding paths and systems. One if for the electrical current feeding the the device and the other is for the line-level signal connecting the components. I have used cheater plugs for years with no problems. The second grou... | |

| Best Pre-amp processor I am very familiar with the ARC. The Cal has a the soundstage width and depth of a good tube pre-amp. But it falls short in that is it antiseptic in its presentation. Not quite that tube sound and naturalness of vocals.But it images with the best.... | |
| Aragon 8008x5 or EAD PM 1000 I own 3 Aragon amps and can't imagine a better amp at their price point. Why don't you call Aragon for some information. I think you will be surprised at the level of customer support. The Aerial 10t sounds a lot different to me than the B&W 8... | |
| Component video cable Seriouly take a look at Lat Internatinal, latinternational.com. I have tried quite a few brands and this one has represented the best buy by far. The build quality alone will convince you. | |

| Best Pre-amp processor Said it before and I say it again, lol, Cal Audio Labs SSP-2500. I sold my Avp and purchased this unit. A different sound from the Avp. Very clean sounding and more detailed. Combined with the separate video switcher it will switch component hdtv ... | |
| Surrounds - Bipole, Dipole, or Direct Been in your spot. My processor does music surround very well which sounds a lot better with a direct radiator. Also with Dolby pro-logic II taking hold and offering discrete channels when decoding old dolby prologic rear channels, I think dipolar... | |
| PSB speakers? Anyone have any opinions? Have you ever seen a bad review of one? Try 2 pairs of Stratus mini speakers with a C-5i center and a good sub. MIND BLOWING!! | |
| Anything better than Proceed? The Cal Audio Labs SSP-2500 is considerably better than the Proceed AVP being much more advanced with newer chips and faster processing as well as superior sonics. I sold my Avp and purchased one. You will not have video switching but the Avp does... | |
| best 5 channel amp for home theater Stereophile Guide to Hometheater rates the Aragon 8008X3 as a class AAA amp. They now make a five channel version for 4000. The Bryston 9B st is rated class A in Stereophile. About half the power of the Aragon but I am sure they are very close in ... | |
