Re: External DAC for D2
Depends on your personal taste and budget. I love my EMM DA2, but it's 30k. I also enjoyed my Bryston BDA3, which was 10% of the cost of the EMM. .. actually wish I would've kept it for our 2nd...

Re: Speaker suggestions for large room
Subs are a fantastic addition for music. Most speakers on the market won't ever provide the bass weight of standalone subs.

When I win the lottery, I'll put it on my list of things to buy. Short of that, I'll never be wealthy enough to afford them.

Re: Help Me Pick a Surround Pre-Amp/Processor
Find a used Bryston SP3 with the 4K upgrade. I still have one and it works great for HT.

Bryston BDA3 is a steal.
The new Meitner DAC looks very interesting. Haven't heard it though.

Re: Any experience with Panasonic DP-UB9000 movie player?
Agreed. I'm just not one to watch a movie over and over. So buying the physical copy doesn't make much sense.
I'm still buy CDs weekly though.

Re: Any experience with Panasonic DP-UB9000 movie player?
I have the oppo 203. I never use it. Streaming may not be as good, but it's so easy.
If anyone is looking for a player, I'd sell mine.
