    New DVD Player Question

    Ok thanks, I figured It wouldn't work but I thought it was worth a shot asking. Also, what do you guys think of DVD-Audio. Is it worth getting a dvd-a compatible player or is it a waste of money?

    Hey thanks guys for the help, I got a rough setup going and it's sounding great so far! By the way, can any of you recommend one of those home theater setup DVD's that have all the tests on it to fine tune your speakers? Also is there any ones I can download and burn on a CDR that would work?
