| Playing SACDs Ahh, now I get it. That is a problem with SACD. The format is proprietary and they are not allowed to pass the digital signal. So, you are very limited with 2 channel SACDs.Without a doubt the Hugo sounds better.My 105 does have toslink and coa... | |
| Playing SACDs Tell me if I'm reading into this incorrectly but: If you want to run your Oppo into the Hugo this is for 2 channel listening, correct? My 105 outputs digital 2 channel to my Hugo. Most SACDs are hybrid 2 channel discs. Yes, if you have pure SA... | |

| Audio output for a non-HDMI pre-amp The last thing I would ever do is let the TV do any audio processing. Either us the toslink/coax outputs into your mac or buy that pioneer and use 5.1 or 7.1 outputs to the mac. Using a digital cable will cut down on the number of interconnects ... | |
| How much power do I need? Find out using this method... mijostyn,I'm confused with the 6db being an earthquake? Are you referring to 95 as the base line and +6db as the earthquake? My system isn't so unusual but 95 db is a joke. My Coincident speakers are 94db at 1 watt. My 325 watt Mac is overkill... | |

Also, speakers down low are lousy for the people in the front or back. You need more height.Since you want some sort of roof anyway, consider a beam or pole to hang everyt... | |
