Classe 350 vs Pass Labs X600.5
yep, the 600.5 will be considerably better than the CAM350 acoustically. 
B&W 802N
I've had a few speakers in my time, and currently still have the N802's in my possession... they are, in my humble opinion, one of the best bargains out there, period! I kept them over the 802Ds (yep, was not worth 2-3x the price, for 10% improvem... 
Miami, Florida
well, not in miami, but in Fort lauderdale...looking for other audiophiles and enthusiasts! :D 
USB DACs with 24/192 via USB
does the PS Audio DL3 accept 192khz via DigiCoax? if so, the M2tech hiface interface, with a PS audio, may be the best combo yet! 
Denon 3910 vs Marantz Dv 9500...
I've tested both....The Marantz is slightly (and I mean, SLIGHTLY) better in the audio dept, but Picture Quality goes to the Denon 3910 by KO. Given the price difference, this is a no brainer: Denon 3910 all the way....if you want as close a Pictu... 
Question about Denon 2900 vs. 3910
That's correct...the 5910 is a completely different animal! It is the best overall Player in the market bar none...it has the Teranex chipset (unlike the 3910 which has the Faroudja FLI2300 chipset), and has the best audio DACs Denon has put out t... 
Question about Denon 2900 vs. 3910
Wow...I am surprised nobody gave you more details on this. In a nutshell, the 3910 is basically the 5900 performance (with better video I might add) at less than half the cost. The 2900 is nowhere near the caliber of the 3910. Trust me, I own both... 
Best used universal transport/player for $1,000?

Anyone familar with the Swan line of speakers?
I have the Swan 6.1 mains, and the 3C center....absolutely fabulous sounding speakers. Dont get suckered by the "made in china" stereotype some people may have. I audiotioned several speakers for a long time prior to getting these and they just bl... 
Onkyo DV-SP1000 or Pioneer DV-59AVi?
Been in your shoes, and ended up with the 3910!! NOTHING COMES CLOSE in its price range... I had an old sony, and started auditioning several players, and ended up with a shootout between the 59avi and 3910. In the store we tried it against a Pion... 
DTS vs Dolby Digital?
no comparison: [b]DTS[/b]!! For every 20 DVDs, there may be one DD that has a recording that is equal or better than DTS...19/20 DTS will blow it out of the water...and that my friends, is the truth.Show me a DD recording that will even come close... 
Yamaha DSP-A1 volume LED going out...
yeah...I tried pushing the knob...the LED keeps blinking low and then it will go to normal sometimes....it acts as if it is going bad, or it has a lose connection or something...
