| when is a speaker considered full range? Definitely not. Mebbe even raise it a bit.Kal | |
| Preamp question about loudness If the preamp's gain is >1, the volume will be greater. However, the limit is already set(!) by your 2wpc amp. It can output only so much no matter how hard you drive it.Kal | |
| High quality processors with HDMI 1.3 Thanks but now I must correct my earlier post. It turns out that the new Cary Cinema 11a will decode those formats.Kal | |
| High quality processors with HDMI 1.3 Note that both the NAD and the Cary, afaik, do not (yet?) have the CODECs for the lossless formats (Dolby-TrueHD and dts Master Audio) and, therefore, require PCM from their sources.Kal | |

| Best mastered recordings "Sound different, to some degree?" Heck, they are entirely different from the instruments, players, venues, recording team, mastering team, producers, etc. How can you ascribe any difference to one parameter or another?"I've noticed, for this part... | |
