Multi Channel Pre vs processor I just skipped the pre-pro altogether. Oppo 105 direct to an Emotiva UPA-7 amp. Two pieces of equipment for 7.1 system. | |
Anybody heard the Krell Foundation? I would assume it accepts multi-channel audio through HDMI although I prefer the analog out of the player for the 'just because' reason. | |

Matching Sub for NHT SuperZero XUs? I too have used the SW2 sub and MA-1A amp with four superzeros and matching NHT center with good results. But with the price of a used SW2(P) and shipping you can get into a 10" HSU or SVS for not much more money I would guess. Not having heard a ... | |
