| Recommended DVD-A Titles? 02-14-06: EldartfordTvad...Are you multichannel? If so there are some really spectacular discs I could recommend.Two channel only. Some great suggestiones in here. Bonnie Raitt's "Road Tested" may be my top concert DVD, and at least in the top thr... | |
| Nuforce Maybe they have a sound that is appealing to some and not to others.Immense truth to this statement. | |
| Best color s to paint dedicated listening room She's helping pick out blinds, bedding, furniture and lighting as well. Hopefully by this weekend I'll have a brand new room all loaded up and ready for action.Including sheet plastic? ;) | |
| 48K, 96K or 192K 02-14-06: Kr4Well, the reason for limiting the output bandwidth is to account for whether or not the device receiving the output can handle it. If you send a 24/192 signal to a DAC or receiver which can only handle 24/48, the extra bits would be t... | |
| Will computer to DAC replace transports and cdp's? ...in the sixties, it can't have been easy finding LPs with only a black light to guide you and no short term memory... ;)That was certainly half the fun of vinyl playback in the seventies.

| Anybody tried 20th Anniversary Purist cables? Tonypony asked, I thought, some good questions:Is the Cat5 a shielded design? What are its fundamental electrical characteristics? In some uses (like a tube pre into a low input impedance SS amp) the reactance of the whole circuit comes into play,... | |
| 48K, 96K or 192K Oh. Thanks for the clarification.One question, though. If 192khz passes all info through, why have three available settings on a player? Why not simply have 192khz as the default setting?Jwilt mentions his is an upconverting player. The 192khz set... | |

| Best color s to paint dedicated listening room Agree with Unsound. Muted, non-reactive colors which don't reflect color back on the screen are best if the dedicated room will also be used for home theater. | |
| 48K, 96K or 192K 02-14-06: Kr4DVD is up to 24/48. DVD-A can be anything up to 24/192, at least in 2 channels, and up to 24/96 in 5.1. So, set the output for 192kHz in order not to down-sample and mangle the best discs.KalKr4 (Threads | Answers)Perhaps the setting ... | |
| 48K, 96K or 192K Jim, DVD-A is 48khz/24-bit, so I would say set your player to 48khz. 96khz and 192khz are upsampled options for experimentation, but 48khz is the straight-through setting.BTW, DVD-A is stunning IMO. It has phenomenal resolution and maintains the d... | |
| Best color s to paint dedicated listening room Avoid cool colors...green, blue.Consider warm colors...deep reds, cranberry, eggplant...and dark tones. I personally find a dark room the most conducive to listening and getting lost in the music.Lighting is as important as paint.Or, play it safe ... |
