| upsampling CDP's for $1500? Big difference? I agree with Dopogue. I have a few Marantz Universal and DVD players and they offer optional upsampling for music CDs. They sound worse when I select upsampling. Specific music details disappear. Terrible. I'm more and more convinced that the over... | |
| need CDP upgrade advice I agree 100% with Crimhead regarding SACDs. After buying and listening to my first few, I was stunned at the superior sound and overall fidelity these produce over standard CDs. Why would you not want to continue building your collection? That's e... | |
| Allman Brothers DVD cost?? Thanks gents. The ABB website does actually includes a rather lengthy positive review of this concert on DVD and does show it in their list of DVDs for sale but states it's out of print. With such a rave review, how could be it out of print? That'... | |
| Allman Brothers DVD cost?? I guess I don't fully understand how Amazon is structured. I thought they sold their products from one large distribution center. But these DVDs are in stock somewhere it appears. No I haven't seen this concert yet but it received a number of good... | |
| Marantz reliability? I had a Marantz SR5600 AVR purchased a few years ago. The on panel volume knob stopped working but the remote still could adjust the volume. Knowing there was a 3 year warranty, I held off getting it repaired but then finally took it to a local fa... | |
| Cable for subwoofers Thanks for the excellent replies gents. I'll try the cable swap. Unlike the ASW600 (which I did have to tighten the allen screws around the driver when I first bought that sub because it rattled also), the ASW610 has no mounting screws for the dri... | |
| Audio from Blu-Ray players-how is it? My Marantz BD7003 does an excellent job on standard CDs. Great sound. I don't use it for that purpose but it does an outstanding job on pure audio. The newer Marantz BD units are supposed to be even better. The audio signal path and circuitry was ... | |
| which Brand of Reciever produces the Best Audio? Yes, Rotel AVRs are highly musical. I did a side by side comparison last year with Marantz. While I love Marantz products and have a Blu-ray and a CD player (2 pcs) and did have an SR5600 AVR, I found the Rotel RSX-1057 to be more musical. It has ... | |

| Speakers for Rock Music Shaunp: Just curious. Which Rotel CDP did you have that you now have upgraded and which one did you upgrade too? Thanks and all the best with your new 804's They are fantastic. | |
| SACD Multichannel player - $400 budget If you can purchase a preowned Marantz DV6001 Universal player (no longer manufactured), you'll be very satisfied with its sound. I purchased one on Audigon preowned. It was only about a year old and got a great deal. Seller was fantastic. It's a ... | |
| Speakers for Rock Music Before you totally discount the 683s, my room is actually larger than yours and do have a pair of 683s. With 2 powered B&W subs spaced strategically in the room and Rotel 5 channel amp/AVR at 120 watts/ch all driven, the sound ROCKS for sure. ... | |
| ROTEL RSX-1056 repair Eyre777It seems Rotel does not have any authorized factory repair centers as does Marantz and NAD for example. Did some checking and you may want to contact L&M Electronics, Daly City, CA 415-586-1840. At their website, they claim to be able t... |
