David, your quest for a great home theater will be a great journey, and many people will give you hundreds of ideas:) My humble input will start with Denon. I own a Denon avr-3803, and its awewsome. There are models above and below this, and I have used some of their other models. In my...

The last two post are correct, the f85 IS NOT the exact replacement for the rp82. I sell those units as well. Xp30 if you dont want dvd-audio, xp50 if you do. Denon 1600 if you prefer better audio DAC's.

James, I own a Denon avr-3803, and I would highly reccomend it to you. Its quality is excellent from the sound right down to the fit and finish. It converts non component video inputs to component which will be a benefit if you plan on hooking something up via s-video or composite video. This...

Grant, the reason sony is pushing sacd is because sony and phillps came up with the the idea, and they own the rights to it, where as dvd-audio is a standard, and its easier for companys to make the players to support it because its not owned by sony and phillips.

Grant, there are several dvd-audio/sacd combo players out now. Denon has the dvd-2900 which is the player I would go with, in fact, when the price comes down a bit, it will be my next player. As for a night at the opera, reviewers at digitalaudioguide.com gave it an average of 4.4 out of a...

I second that! Thanks Brian for the info.

I wanted to re-post this since my previous thread was removed. Anyone considering the purchase of a denon dvd-1600 should be happy to know after testing many movies and some dvd-audio, the performance is outstanding! The audio quality is far and above the players I've used in the past. And the...

Keith, maybe the technical term is dts music disc, but it is often sold as a dvd-audio, and it was in the dvd-audio section at best buy. And I'd really like to know the resolution of the disc.

Craig, it does exist, because I had it in my hand in best buy, but it doesnt say the resolution. I see its 24 bit, but I'm wondering if its 96/24, as the dts dvd video is not.

Anyone out there have the eagles hell freezes over in dvd-audio? I have the regular dts-dvd concert, and cant seem to find info ANYWHERE on whether the dvd-audio has a higher resolution playback, or is it just the same thing without video. I would buy it if its 96/24, but whats the point if its...

The panasonic xp50 is the replacement for the rp82, and the xp30 is the same thing without dvd-audio. Bad thing is all 3 are discontinued. The good news is the denon dvd-1600 is the same player as the rp82, but with better audio dac's. The Denon uses burr-brown audio dac's. The denon is more...

My room is about 12x18 or so, and I run a denon AVR-3803 in 7.1. I think it was well worth it. Besides the obvious advatages, I am able to listen to stereo encoded sources in awesome 7 channel stereo. Great for tv and sporting events etc. You may need to adjust your delay times and db settings...
