| Searching for a new Pre/Pro Again "I heard reports saying Integra is not smooth for music reproduction." No. What has been said is that the Integra's analog inputs are inferior to using its digital inputs. So, it boils down to whether you have analog sources or not. In the system ... | |
| Pre-amp out Question Any will work but you should try them all.Kal | |
| SA-CD/DVD-A question? Stop the disc and use the DVD-48s SACD button on the front panel to select CD.Kal | |

| Anyone using the analog inputs from the processor? 1. SACD/DVD-A are now available, as digital, on HDMI and, in my case, on 3xS/PDIF. The prior restrictions were based on the intention of keeping the digital output away from those who would copy it, allowing them only the analog. That should tell ... | |
| Anyone using the analog inputs from the processor? You tell 'em, Flrnlamb!! I believe that, in almost all cases, the preference for analog is based on archaic philosophy.Kal | |
| Anyone using the analog inputs from the processor? For a little more $, you can add a 'universal' (not BluRay) player that will send SACD/DVD-A via HDMI. Pioneer has 2 of them and so does Oppo.Kal | |
| has anyone heard the arp reflective boards? "You will be immersed into the music and you'll be no longer asking yourself: is this the way the concert hall* sounds? I think Altmann belongs to this latter group. He's also referring to the sound of wood and several organic substrates (bone) be... | |
| has anyone heard the arp reflective boards? I have yet to see/hear an untreated domestic listening room that would not benefit from proper treatment but the panels you propose cannot resolve any of those issues. Perhaps you just like the certain sound of your own room to which you have beco... | |
| SME III arm wand rewire Very difficult. I tried dissecting one and, when I did, I had destroyed too much to permit reassembly. Mebbe you can do better but I'd just buy another off eBay.Kal | |
| has anyone heard the arp reflective boards? "altmann's theory was to use a wood that behaved like a musical instrument, spruce. and then to top it off, he used a varnish that imitated the old masters."BTW, I went to Altmann's site and it is apparent that he has no awareness of the differenc... | |
| has anyone heard the arp reflective boards? "......i attend much live music, much, and one thing i noticed in the best of halls is not a lot of damping, rather, wonderful wood. great old shiny wood, and old plaster. not overdamped rooms. concert halls are not designed like recording studios... | |
| Anyone using the analog inputs from the processor? If you want to use the processing in the processor, you will need to redigitize the analog signals and then, of course, convert them back to analog for output to the amp. Better to use the digital (HDMI) output and let the processor do its DSP and... | |
| What is the difference between.... OK. Digital cables have defined impedances (coax 75ohms; xlr 600ohms). Analog interconnects are not so defined. As a result, almost all digital cables will handle analog fine. Some analog cables will not work for digital (but most will).Kal | |
| What is the difference between.... Ah, but digital interconnects work fine for analog. :-)Kal |
