| Best Plasma sony,pioneer.Panasonic ? The issue of using the Panasonic with the HD-DVDO as an alternative to the Fujitsu has been debated on AVSforum but, so far, no one has done a side-by-side comparison and, like Keithr, is speculating. I am quite please with my Fujitsu P50 and I sa... | |
| XLR Female - RCA Male digital cable If it's a recent LinkDAC, just get the XLR/Balanced input option for it. Great improvment. | |
| Wiring a Center Channel Good point. Going back to the original post, one should not add the ground(-) to ground(-) jumper since the +to+ connection should work with common ground amps and shouldn't be used with non-common ground amps. | |
| Upcoming source models in the Denon pipeline You left out the DVD-1910. ;-) | |
| Wiring a Center Channel If you connect the hots, you get no stereo. To sum, you need an additional amp with a combining network. | |
| Wiring a Center Channel For a center channel, one wants to have only those signals that are common to the left and right channels. (It's a little more complex than just summing but similar.)However, by connecting the speaker between the two hots means that current will f... | |
| Wiring a Center Channel What this achieves is not a center channel but a difference channel which might best be placed in the rear. It is a variant of the "Hafler" circuit. | |
| Best Plasma sony,pioneer.Panasonic ? My choices would be different but so would, perhaps, another's. I suggest you wade into www.avsforum.com for a lot of opinion on this topic. | |
| watts per channel when biamping Depends. What are you driving? The numbers you offer are only what the amps are supposedly capable of doing under test, not what you will get from them under normal conditions. Think about this: if you bi-amp, do you really think most tweeters can... | |
| Monitors to pair with a Sonic Frontiers Power 2 Soliloquy 5.3 might be a good choice. | |
| CD outputs and HDCD I sincerely doubt it but, if you can offer some documentation, I would like to see it. BTW, the BB 24/96 may be "capable" of a wider dynamic range but there are only the same number of bits from CD for all the DACs. | |
| CD outputs and HDCD 6dB vs. 8dB dynamic range? Check your sources since either one would suck. One problem was the mandatory default lowering of the gain by 6dB for regular CDs. Many fixes were offered. | |
| DVD-A questions: LFE channel; DTS/DVD-A confusion The LFE levels are not a problem in playing the Silverline/Abravanel discs, specifically, as those same burbles are audible on the correspondig Artemis SACD reissues (4.0, no LFE) even when I play them without bass management. They occur irregular... | |
| DVD-A questions: LFE channel; DTS/DVD-A confusion BUy some new recordings, not reissued remasters. ;-)Seriously, the Vanguard/Abravanel reissues are all troubled by that LF noise.Kal | |
| CD outputs and HDCD At the time that HDCD came out, the PM oversampling filter used for it was superior to the other filters on the market. That was in the past. |
