| OPPO BD95 output question It does but you should buy the Oppo BDP-93, not the 95, as you will not be using the DACs and analog outputs which are the only advantage of the 95 over the 93.Kal | |
| Cary 11a vs Anthem D2 "The Cary 11a recognizes PCM output from an Oppo 93 as DSD, thus there is no bass management. Does the D2 have a similar problem?" I have not found any device other than the Cary that does so. | |
| Which surround algorithm is better? I have never heard any surround algorithm that is universally applicable. Some are fairly benign (Anthem-Logic) and others are usefully tweakable (TriField) but, ultimately, every one is caught out by one recording or another. If I feel the need t... | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Correct but not likely in my experience. Also, easily repaired.Kal | |
| room analysis software RTA Lite is cute, handy and completely ineadequate for this.Kal | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system That's one way. The simpler is to connect the L/R outputs of the SSP to the Creek, set the latter at a mid-level of the VC rotation and mark it so you can repeat that setting accurately. Then you run the SSP's setup/calibration for all channels vi... | |
| room analysis software These are the low/reasonably priced options, imho:RoomEQ Wizard (must add mic and preamp)R&D (must add mic and preamp)XTZ (complete hardware/software package)Omnimic(complete hardware/software package)Kal | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? I am here.It is impossible for me to know how the 80.2/3 would sound compared to anyone's analog 2 channel setup, even my own (since it is in a different house). The Carys have all had excellent analog sound but, imho, fail as adequate digital MCH... | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Gentlemen:What you have described is the procedure for emulating a HT Bypass when that function is not provided. It is an input on the 2 channel preamp with an accurately fixed gain into which one feeds the L/R line level outputs from the HT or MC... | |
| McCormack DNA-1 runs hot 100 degrees is only warm, not hot. Normal in my experience with my Rev. A DNA-1.Kal | |
| Network VS..... What are "networked cables?" | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Does the Creek have an HT Bypass function? If so, that is what will do this for you.Kal | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? Wait a minute,Ridom. You get only analog from the analog output, not PCM and not DSD. If you want DSD, you use a prepro (like the 80.2/3) that can accept DSD. It can then do Audyssey/Bass Management although it will convert the DSD to PCM for that... | |
| 2 channel priority in HT Processor...who's is best Add the Bryston SP3 to the list. | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? I thought so. I handed my 9.8 on to a needy friend.Kal |
