Hi Garfish, Thanks for the info. Can the jitterbug go to the Denon and use its Burr/Brown DACs and still sound as good as your set up with the Muse DAC? Have you heard the Sony SACD yet?

Sorry about the typos. The amp is VAC renaissance 70 Conrad Johnson Premier 16LS preamp, DCS Delios and Purcell, Avalon Opus spkrs, Synergistic designer reference cable and Bybee power conditioner.

Hi Albert, interesting camera story, but CD technology has had 20 years to mature and unless i'm mistaken, digital cameras are only beginning to make their presence felt. I have been lisening to a VAT amp with a Theta transport, DCS upsampling and... 
Cables and spkrs. for Denon AVR 5700?
Thanks Drumsgreg, My room size is almost identical. I will ask around and see if friends or dealers that I know have any of the cables you mentioned and try them out.

Carl, You still haven't gotten the point, we have no problem taking the heat or sticking up for ourselves, we just don't want someone burning down the house. We didn't complain about your opinion just your tasteless personal attacks. How about pos...

Thanks Greg, I will check into that later this week after I set up the Denon. I have questions regarding speakers and interconnects for the Denon AVR 5700 in the System Matching section. If you can spare a minute I would appreciate a second opinon.

In my living room a.k.a. my "Home Theater" I have a Sony DVD S7700 on a tall and sturdy steel and glass (1") audio rack with the other components below on different shelves. Do you think that these devices would have any effect on the audio or vid...

Garfish, The crispness that you are noticing is probably a slight loss of bass in the transfer therefore the mids and treble are more noticable. I experience the same sort of thing when going from CD to Minidisk. Yes the quality is impressive. I h...

In the interest of moving on, I will say that when Carl sticks to the subject he is interesting and well informed, even if he is outspoken. But, big boys don't have to resort to insults to make their point. This only serves to undermine the spirit... 
Help=Vienna Beethoven&Sonus Faber GP
I have heard many of the Vienna Acoustics models and some of the Sonus Faber models in an excellent environment with good electronics, (Harvey Audio NYC). They both have the ability to involve you in the music and they both have shortcomings. To g...

Thank you Mike, I couldn't have said it better myself. This is not the place for personal attacks. I look forward to your posts on other topics.

Carl, lighten up. I think you've just won the worlds longest analogy award. You have no idea what I may have heard or not heard. If you and your 917 took a pit stop you might have noticed I was saying that at this time vinyl may be superior, but a...

You guys are getting a bit cranky lately. For most of us our interest in music began with the records our parents played or the songs we heard on the radio. These sources were usually barbaric by todays' standards. I had a cheap Emerson console an... 
24 bit 96khz. whats the deal?
I think that it passes 24/96 through the analogue outs only, but I will check and return with the results later. 
24 bit 96khz. whats the deal?
I am awaiting arrival of a Denon AVR5700. I have the Sony DVD 7700. Both state true 24/96 capability, I think without downconversion. If this is so will this improve my standard CD listening or must I have a 24/96 disc to hear any improvement? I a...
