QUOTE(eugenecctan @ Mar 26 2012, 12:34 PM) Replace with? Should I get back Pioneer AVR? Replace with an amplifier that can decode HD audio..Any brand also can, not necessary Pioneer. Because amp is the heart of HT..u should at least get a mid-range to high-end model. A good powerful amp can work with cheaper speakers BUT a good quality speakers cannot work with cheap and less powerful amp.  |

LPCM vs Bitstream..in theory it should be same rite? but in actual case, it really depends on which player/amp has the better on-board decoder.
LPCM - use BD player DAC Bitstream -use AMP DAC If LPCM --> It's like setup a HI-FI system (PCM) , assuming both CD player using the same integrated amp, in most situation a RM 1000 CD player beats RM 300 CD player in providing good SQ. If u need a player able to handle good decoder job...IMHO, u should have chosen a high-end model BD player, most likely DAC should be better. So, for HT..if u have an entry-level BD player, it's better to bitstream and let the Amp do the decoder job.. I have no experience in Pioneer amp..no comment there. |

The reviewer might be using a different BD player or AVR, thats why it may sound different.
