| McCormack DNA-1 vs. DNA-125 That's actually a comparison with a DNA-225.Kal | |

| SACD Player What are you connecting it to? If you can use the direct DSD/HDMI output of the Oppo 980H, that would be ideal. (The Pioneer DV-58AV will do that as well.) If you are using the analog outputs, you would want something with better analog performanc... | |

| OPPO 980 h dvd mod? "Same thing goes for cars. Want prestige and speed, buy that BMW or Benz. Dont care about prestige but only care about performance, then buy a used dodge neon and throw a turbo and some other parts on it and blow right past the BMW down the road. ... | |

| High end processors with HDMI 1.3a To Cytocycle:I have read (and continue to read) the I/O threads on AVS and know about what is there. Let me say that many of us have not experienced any audio drop-outs and the statistics of occurance of this problem is indeterminate. There is a l... |
