Integra 9.8 troubles
You have to select the appropriate sound track from the disc menu. Otherwise, you get the default, whatever that is; apparently stereo.The display on the 9.8 shows what it is receiving and then the 9.8 can redistribute it as set in the input menu.Kal 
Why can't my 32" Sony LCD show component out?
This should certainly work. I can only suggest the obvious: Is the resolution selected in the player suitable for the display?Kal 
HDMI Audio Quality vs Optical/Digital/Analogue
Coax digital has wider bandwidth than the original TOSlink interfaces would permit but TOSlink has been improved to its equal today. Kal 
DTS HD Master & Dolby True HD set up
02-07-09: Kennyt: Kal, Why?Because the 2500 was originally marketed as a transport to connect to processors that could decode the HD codecs and to differentiate it from the 3800.Kal 
Is Audyssey worth it?
I know. Most are.Kal 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Good for you, it will help. Kal 
why does the bass change on my velodyne dls-5000
Can you restate the two conditions? I am not certain what you are comparing.Kal 
Is Audyssey worth it?
Your equipment is fine, as described, but the value of Audyssey is correction for room acoustics. If yours are perfect, you don't need it (or similar). The rest of us do. ;-)Kal 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Why not? Because, aside from realizing the multichannel aspects of these older recordings, we are asymptotically close to hearing all they have and, also, because no new medium will survive without new content.Kal (bored with most reissues) 
Redefining "Universal Player"
How about LP? Kal 
Redefining "Universal Player"
Hmmm. I've had much more than a dozen players, including universals and BluRay players, none have had a digital input and I never even noticed.And today, there's even a decreasing need for it as more and more players are simply transports which ou... 
Big AV Receivers : Digital or Analogue ?
So, why is it necessary to consider it either one or the other? I don't.Kal 
TacT, Lyngdorf, Audyssey Pre/Pro, PARC?
BTW, one advantage of any EQ or measurement system that has a good display is that you can use it to optimize sub placement and to view the effects of acoustical treatements. Not an insignificant feature.Kal 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
The Blu-Ray HD lossless formats are excellent but there are seriously few audio HD music releases. In any case, they do not blow away SACD as demonstrated by the 2L Divertimenti set which includes both. (One can argue what is better/preferable but... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Developmenti? :-)I gotta admit, though, that it never enters my mind to put an "audiophile" CD into one of the BluRay players. OTOH, since I feed the digital output of all the players into the same processor, I would not expect much of a differenc...
