It's a shocking price from Denon reguardless of the scaler, but it it has a top rated scaler, I'm going to pass out!


My thoughts exactly, but I'm still hopeful \:\)

The upconversion of that Denon won't be able to compete with the Oppo bpd-83.


Fact or speculation?

If you have a PS3, they why do you want the Denon to begin with? The PS3 streams Netflix, plays DVD's, Blu-ray's, Games, etc. In my mind the Denon would be a step down.


What, people aren't paying attention to my whining? Netflix is a non-issue for me right now, but I want a good device for streaming my media. I don't have a really good way to stream my music collection. I'm using the WD TV Live, but I had to convert my collection from lossless WMA to FLAC. It works, but the interface isn't the best and is kind of slow. The PS3 finally supported lossless WMAs before I converted my collection, but the playback had its hiccups. The other thing is that the PS3 outputs a signal that my pre-pro won't apply matrixed surround modes to, which is something I consider a must-have. If the Denon supports FLAC, has a good interface, and plays my music in a stereo signal that my pre-pro can apply surround modes to, then it's the player I'm looking for.

The only thing the Denon really has going for it over the PS3 Slim, is DVD-A and SACD compatibility.


That's another thing.

My PS3 outputs stereo audio with only two channels of HDMI audio. At one point mine was doing the 7.1 channels active for stereo signals with all the extra ones carrying silence. But it seemed to have stopped after some firmware update. Have a look through your audio settings too. I know there's nothing which spells that out, but there's a setting for output of CD audio. Make sure that's set to the 44.1,... sampling rates, and not the 48 kHz default. Otherwise, I dunno.
