| 2 channel priority in HT Processor...who's is best Why? | |
| Sony DVDAudio and SACD Sorry. You are hearing the DolbyDigital surround track and not the DVD-A track.Kal | |
| What high-end multichannel SACD players are there? Current line of thinking is Oppo 95 going over HDMI, unless I stumble across a much better sounding option over HDMI. Why 95? If you are going HDMI, get the 93. | |
| Big 2 channel Amp OR Smaller 6 channel and TRIamp? Just get a big enough amp. That's all. | |
| Anthem AVM/20 upgrade to Integra or Marantz?? The issue with used is that features change rapidly. One needs to be quite certain what one is getting, what one is giving up and what one needs.Kal | |
| High grade tube pre with digital display Sonic Frontiers Line 3 | |
| Big 2 channel Amp OR Smaller 6 channel and TRIamp? Sorry. I forgot about the OPs three pairs of terminals and was trying to fit your suggestion into 2 pairs.Kal | |
| Big 2 channel Amp OR Smaller 6 channel and TRIamp? How about you bi-amp, with 200 wpc for the woofers and then use a second amp for the mids/tweets and jumper them? Jumper what? Why? Cannot think of a jumper in this situation that would not create the potential for a short.Kal | |

| Upgrading from a Classe CDP 300 and SSP 600 If there is really $7K of difference, especially if you stick to HDMI (and save another $500 by getting the Oppo 93)! Remember, the Mac has MultEQ XT and the Integra has MultEQ XT32. (All this is inferential, of course, without hearing/using the M... | |
| Upgrading from a Classe CDP 300 and SSP 600 Good choice. | |
| B&W 801 questions They are biwire compatible but why bother? | |
| Anthem AVM/20 upgrade to Integra or Marantz?? "Now, I'm purposely hyperbolizing, but I don't understand why, in theory, a processor with a better DAC would not sound as good as a processor with a lesser DAC. Is there something at play here that I'm missing. " Because there's more to it than t... | |
| Big 2 channel Amp OR Smaller 6 channel and TRIamp? Can you explain how you reached this conclusion? AFAIK, the current (and power) required is a function of voltage swing of the source and the impedance of the load. | |
| Big 2 channel Amp OR Smaller 6 channel and TRIamp? For the KEF Reference 203.2 (could not easily find the specs for the 203.1), the LF crossover is 300Hz in these speakers and sensitivity is 89dB/2.83v/m so the woofer eats half the power and the power rating is 50-200w. So, I would guess, again, t... |
