For those who handed out recs for the "major" playback upgrade. For those interested heres the new setup:
R500/ HHb 830> Lucid D/A
Denon DVD-2200
Denon 3803> Rotel 1080> B&W 803 (mains) Mirage Fx3 (rear)
Listening to the WSP Ball DVD-A right now, pretty amazing what a decent playback can do, really eye opening . . .
So just wanted to say thanks for all the great recomendations on gear and places to buy, I would not have known where to begin and you guys got me hooked up with a system that I am SO happy with!
