| Anyone tried ripping SACD as 24bit PCM? Yes, it has been done. See http://www.computeraudiophile.com/forum for many who have.Kal | |
| Stereophile Rated the Sqeezebox Touch Class D First, Atkinson did not pressure or even ask me to remove any postings. I did so because they were made in haste and in error.Second, if you Google a bit, you will find I have made many posts (> 20,000 on AVS alone) and a substantial number hav... | |

| Proceed Pre balanced input and rca output? Can of worms. IMHO, no under ordinary conditions. Others will take issue with it.Kal | |
| Two pairs of spkrs in tandem "Although I am thinking of just running them on both A and B speaker outputs. " Why? It is the same amp anyway.Kal | |
| separated biwire posts? "Shorter wire runs? Less cross talk?" Inconsequential.Kal | |
| Analogue for Home Theater??? My last column (September Stereophile) covers my analysis and opinions of the analog-vs-hdmi connection issues.Kal | |
| Two pairs of spkrs in tandem Passive loudspeakers cannot generate hum, only reproduce it. Now, are the 300ti's in parallel with the B&W's? Your actually wiring circuit is unclear to me from what you have posted.Kal | |

In the real world, that delay is sum of the physical distance and ... | |
| Amps/AVproc/pre forRevel Ultima Salon 2 5.1 system Your naivety is revealed by your statement that these speakers "run at" any particular power level. What kind of power they need will depend on your room dimensions, furnishings and your preferred listening levels. I would certainly not recommend ... | |
| Analogue for Home Theater??? What do you mean by "analogue 5.1 processor?" There are a number of good to excellent analog 5.1 preamplifiers but, if there is any processing/conversion included, one could not call such a device an "analogue 5.1 processor."I have reviewed many o... | |
| Audyssey powered components What do you mean "proprietary?" It is a 5 band per channel PEQ. I prefer to use most of that for the bass. Kal | |
| Audyssey powered components Yes. Afaik, the AV8003 will not do 24/96 PCM with Audyssey so one's feelings will depend on what one listens to. For movies, I suspect that most HD is no more than 24/48 but, since it is lossless, it should sound great. For music, one would not be... | |
| Audyssey powered components The problem with the 8003, which is a competent design, is that it (1) uses MultEQ, not MultEQ XT and (2) cannot use Audyssey with any of the HD codecs. The imminent release of the AV7005 at about $1500 msrp will correct both.Kal | |
| Are Integra Pre/Pros too good to be true? I am still impressed with the 9.8 but have never heard the Rotel.Kal |
