I have finished making some equipment changes and putting my combo music room/HT back together. I purchased a used Modwright Oppo 105D which is new to me.
Here is my question(s):
1) For my HT I have been using a Bel Canto Pre6 which will pass the analog signal from the Oppo but the Pre6 doesn't afford any EQ options, so I would have to add an outboard EQ to do that. Should I go that route or get one of the new AV Processors with built-in EQ? If so, what would you recommend?
2) Can I use the XLR analog out from the Oppo direct to my Mcintosh C500T preamp for two channel SACD in addition to also having the 5.1 channels out of the Oppo connected to the Pre6 (or new processor) at the same time when I want to listen to Multi-Channel SACD or DVD-A's.
3) What is the best way to EQ with all of the above?
Thanks in advance for any and all thoughts!
Mike
