didikl, now one yammy only bring in silver or gold for msia and spore, kenot get black liao

I have been a yammy supporter all the well and will be getting RX-V1800 pretty soon. Dun care what colour leh as long as it sounds nice will do. I guess that's the only range I can afford, RX-V3800 is too expensive for me.

sorry, no black, i dun wan

wait for BD-50 lar...the 2.0 profile player

No lah, it's got nothing to do with being an Elite or not b'coz a smart consumer will never want to be guinea pigs for these big giant corporations. Blu-ray players are all work in progress players, they don't have finalized specs like hd-dvd players, the safest bet, use a PS3 first, even if it is outdated, it's still a gaming console no matter what but seriously, I do believe the PS3 can be upgraded to profile 2.0 easily with no problems since it has an Ethernet port, large internal ram and a HDD but the main purpose of getting a standalone blu-ray player is to output HBR via HDMI to our A/V amp so that it can decode Dolby TruHD, DTS-HD MA, etc in its fully glory. For now, I'm happy using my PS3 for my blu-ray needs.

Maybe, it's a sign from God to hint you to change to Yamaha RX-V3800. 

However, to be frank, the internal decoding by the amp will sound much better than PS3's PCM output.

er.... DD/DTS processing thru the amp?
i dun think so, as its a direct signal as multi pcm nia, no decoding on the amp part

i really dunno why, for chris botti its minimal, but can hear the differece, but hor... in protege, its major difference, after i switch to DTS, i can reduce my volume by 10

no ideas anyone?

eh... macha.... u ingat father in law i PM ke?

correct me if i m wrong

all amp got DD or DTS DAC chip one

so when u source feed in digital source

the DAC convert it to analogue....then output ur speaker

Added on February 25, 2008, 9:40 amsorry to say those Cinema DSP proccessing suxx when compare to same grade of Marantz & Denon

sorry sorry to all cos i m using those

but i see new HDMI range is so far beyong my affordability now

why all people selling their BDs? bro aiman 3:10 not nice?? tot u ar collector

avbody jumping to HD dvd wagon

yeah, all amp has those chips.

but in onkyo 605, it cant process anything on PCM sources (as output by our beloved PS3). It accept the pcm signal, and convert it to analouge (to speakers). thats it. (i think onk 705 an above can process PCM)

Thats y a lot of people going for amps that could process PCM sources. (eg yam 661 n above, n of course upcoming 663, damn!).

for example my 661: Playing TrueHD on PS3, PS3 output it as MPCM (multichannel PCM). 661 accept the signal (PCM icon lights up), i add equalizer, speaker settings, LFE crossover, bla bla, and importantly i added Prologic IIx because to matrix the MPCM sources to my 6.1 speaker settings. And walla! im watching celine dion like im in the theater!
DD/DTS is max 1.5mbps. While PCM/TrueHD/DTS MA is exact replication of studio master. (except TrueHD/DTS MA using compression to save a heck of spaces in BDs and uncompress it back in the receiver, bitstream ofcourse)

in my opinion, technically, PCM is far more superior than legacy DD/DTS.

in my experience, definitely PCM is far more kick-ass than legacy DD/DTS.

actually the problem is not on onk 605 (605 is 1 of best valued receiver).

it is PS3! hahaha

because of our beloved PS3 cant internally decode DTS MA yet or bitstream both HD audio yet. So if onk paired with a bitstream capable player (ie pana BD30), then its gonna be a kick-ass experience as well.

aiks... 1st of all , ps3 decode avthin internally, rite
so wat odes my amp do? just output the sound mar, no?
