| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but Hi jafant, I have everything working and then had family in for the last couple weeks. No listening time at all! Still have one in town, but I should have more time soon.Thanks for asking.JD | |
| Amp for nee LRS Maggies I’m definitely looking forward to hearing the LSR’s and I agree a pair of Vidars would be the perfect amount of power, but wouldn’t you also need a couple of subwoofers also?JD | |
| I'm having a really hard time with: "Power cable reduced my soundstage"... Seeing as this tread has deteriorated again into questions about the last four feet, Voodoo and the like, I have a question.Does anyone just unplug their systems when the weather person says severe and storms in the same sentence? Just curious.JD | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but glupson, It’s funny now that I finally got the Oppo to play SACD’s I can set it on DSD or PCM and they both sound the same. Is that supposed to happen or is it my hearing going?JD | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but uberwaltz,So I'm just finishing my third cup and I have unplugged the Toslink and the Digital RCA from the Oppo and I am still happily listening to the stereo layer. I'm guessing something was stuck with the Optical hardware, but I'm not an expert... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but So last night I hooked a Sony to a smart tv with HTMI and Optical out to a receiver. I played the SACD stereo layer. I hooked up the Oppo the same way and it also played the SACD stereo layer.Than I did something I hadn’t tried before, I plugged ... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but uberwaltz,I might just look around for a used SACD player to make the test.And uberwaltz, if I haven't said it before, Thank you for taking some of your time to help me with this. I have been puzzling over it for months, but now I might have a le... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but electro69,I don’t think Sony has anything to do with this. I’m sure Oppo paid and installed what ever they had to in order to play SACDs. I’m thinking that my issue is with the Oppo, but for mechanical issues.I’ll be sure to let you know.JD | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but glupson,The Oppo has an HDMI audio output and a HDMI Video output.The audio has never been plugged in.Logically, what you are saying makes sense. But it still is working in this case. As I just said to uberwaltz, I am getting the feeling that the ... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but uberwaltz,I did everything my manual said. I did everything you said, and the Tv screens says yes, but the speakers say no. The CD layer plays just fine. I added a digital rca, CD. I added aToslink, CD. RCA only, nothing. You just said that the... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but uberwaltz,There is a menu setting on the Oppo for SACD. It shows it on but it will only play through the HDMI output. There is dead silence when I use ANY other output. Most of the problem ( So I'm told ) seems to be that RCA and Optical cable... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but mahler123,The Bryston DAC-3 looks like just what the Doctor ordered. It is on my list in all caps!Thanks again for the tip.JD | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but folkfreak,When I set my Oppo to SACD and use Digital RCA, Optical or the analog RCA outputs all I get is silence. With my Oppo, I have to use the HDMI to hear SACD whether its stereo or 5.1.JD | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but Hey uberwaltz,I believe all the Oppo's will play SACD's from the HDMI output. I have a 93 that will.But I want to play the SACD stereo layer without going the HTMI route and am confused why I can't. RCA and Optical can't handle the amount of inf... | |
| Sorry to ask this SACD question, but So folkfreak,Why do so many companies have players labeled SACD if they can't play SACD? Isn't that more than kinda illegal?? My Oppo plays them through HDMI, but I want to play just the stereo layer through my main system, not my HT.JD |
