| CES and T.H.E. 2009 - Is anyone going? I am, and Lc you are right!The CEA promised the hotels would not raise rates this year, and to my checking all hotels are at least 50% or more over last years rates. Add to that the worsening economy and I think you are right, attendance will/shou... | |

| Are lossless Codec's worth upgrading my processor GH,Sell the DC-2 for whatever you can get for it and buy the Integra and a Sony BDP-S350, it's the best acting (fastest load times, response time etc) player I have had and it can be had for ~$200 if you hunt, retail is only $299 and it will outpu... | |
| Best Blu Ray video and for 2 channel transport? I would recommend the Sony BDP-S350, it is cheap (I've seen it for ~$200) loads and responds like a standard DVD, is a Profile 2.0 compatible player (you'll need to update firmware and add a memory stick, but they are I have been a super early ado... | |
| Are lossless Codec's worth upgrading my processor GH,I never liked the DC-2, in fact I haven't like Lexicon until recently, and then only for HT, they are a bit too 'digital' for lack of better description. Amazingly, the Integra is one pre/pro I have not had in my rig, I have heard many great th... | |
| Blu-Spec CDs I still don't see anything worth buying in another high res format! This is the reason the other prior HR formats failed. SOFTWARE. They need to release ALL new media and everything back catalog that sells at all in any new format to make it take ... | |
| Are lossless Codec's worth upgrading my processor Ghstudio, The DC-2 was not the premier piece of it's day. It was pricey and better than many, but not the top of the Lexicon line up. I think the remainder ofthe inputs concur with my thinking.RW,If you don't feel the new codecs are much better, p... | |
| Blu-Spec CDs Audioholik, I see what you are saying now. | |
| Are lossless Codec's worth upgrading my processor Javachip,No, I have nothing to do with retail audio sales.The DC-2 doesn't have a multichannel analog input as I recall, but your point is correct if it did/does.I would encourage him to replace the pre/pro as that was a low model of early Lexicon... | |
| Blu-Spec CDs I hadn't yet gone to the amazon link, man many of those (albums) are poorly recorded. I love the Clash London Calling, but I am not paying $35 for it on Blu-ray, Friday Night in SF is a great live show, but again, not the ultimate in recording qua... | |
| Blu-Spec CDs Dweller,The disc was in the other room, I went from memory, which was wrong!Audioholik,I ran the Blu-ray via HDMI to my pre/pro and my Teac Esoteric DV-50s playing the SACD version via 5.1 analog IC's for the comparison. | |
| Are lossless Codec's worth upgrading my processor GHStudio,If you run a digital out from your blu-ray player you will only get DD and DTS, and NONE of the lossless codecs, it will be the same as any SD DVD, the new codecs can only pass over multichannel analog if the player decodes them or via HD... | |
| Blu-Spec CDs Dweller,I bought it when it first came out directly from the maker, I think it's E2? They sent it to me in less than five days. The openess of the uncompressed tracks (Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD MA) is amazing, far better than even the SACD version, ... | |
| USB DAC or USB to SPDIF conv. + non USB DAC? You will still be limited to USB's output that way, so I would stick with a good USB DAC. | |
