| DVD/SACD or DVD+SACD, which way to go? I have the Sony DVP-NS900v, and must say, that as far as video quality it is more than acceptable. SACD playback is multi channel and when released was considered most excellent. Having said that, I am sure that SACD DACs have improved, if I where... | |

| Speaker Cables? Your input kindly requested. Thanks again for all the info.8-12 feet will do, so not a really long run.The dh labs q-10 looks really interesting, but alas I have no dealer close by. After speaker cables I intend to buy a Tranparent musiclink SUPER to replace a musiclink 100, ... | |
| Speaker Cables? Your input kindly requested. Thanks all. any comments on audioquest caldera (used) or bedrocks (new). I am also considering transparent MW plus, but transparent isnt easily found in bi-wire configs.I am using/tried a few ICs, monstercable refernce 2s, monstercable m850, PBJs,... | |
