| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor For $500, it is the only "new" deal but that is all I can think of that makes it desirable. | |
| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor I am not sure how your specific application demands something different from standard HDMI passthrough which is usually automatic requiring no buttons or menus. I do not have an 80.3 but every other recent prepro, so far, does this without any pro... | |
| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor HDMI bypass is common to almost all modern prepros. | |

| Anyone ever heard of a Nagatron 350E MM Cartridge? The Nagatrons were a good line of high value cartridges back in the late 70s/early 80s. The line more or less paralled those of other brands of the time from cheap ($15) to pricey (>$150).Nothing really special but certainly respectable.Kal | |

| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor What I have to say in general about the Integra 80.2 is that it is the standard-setter for (how shall I put this?) non-high-end processors. I have not used the 80.3 nor the Onkyo equivalents. All other general comments are in my columns about the ... | |
| INTEGRA DBS-30.2 VS. OPPO BDP-93 I fail to see what advantage, other than cosmetics, accrue from matching brands of player and prepro. | |
| Emotiva UMC-1, Onkyo TX-NR809, or Denon AVR3312CI The reason they are so cheap is that they are archaic. If you can tolerate the lack of up-to-date features, some of them are excellent. I wouldn't recommend that, though, and would prefer the Onkyo and Denon you mention over all the others.Kal |
