I do want to use the player for the Blu-Ray sound processing because you correctly noted my receiver's lack of same. I was just concerned that I would not be able to pass through the lossless audio through the HDMI 1.1 inputs; I...

I'm using the Pioneer DV-563A DVD player because it was the only player in my price range that would play both SACD and DVD-Audio discs. Now I've finally made the move to a plasma HDTV, and would like to get a Blu-Ray player. But my...

I'm looking for a 46 inch plasma and have read reviews of the best of the 2008 line, but none yet for the new 2009s just coming out. Any word about picture quality vs. say the TH-46PZ850U? This seems to be the best of the 2008 models...

I take it that there is still no changer version of this universal player or any close to this price range? I'd been holding out for a changer but this player is starting to look like Christmas. My RP-91 Panny now wont recognize...

Wayne, just bookmark that B-Stock page and check it regularly. Stuff comes and goes from it quickly. I got my Samson amp as a B-Stock and never noticed a single ding or other problem. But I probably checked the page 30-40 times over...

Thanks guys. My brother called me today and let me know he'd made his purchase of a Tosh 57HX81 from a company that has its own ISF tech. As a matter of fact he found the guy from the ISF site. After reading this forum, both my...
