Good day
Is it possible to replace a pre/pro with a PC? I've been thinking about this. I still would use my 5 channel power amplifier and my Star Choice HD satellite receiver. Can anyone recommend the following for the PC?
1. A good video card with HDMI output for 1080p
2. A good Sound card with 7 channel outputs to connect to the power amplifier.
3. A Blu-Ray player
4. Large Hard Drive
5. How do I connect my Satellite receiver to the PC, It would need an HDMI or component (component input would have to transpose to HDMI) and a coaxial input. This is the part I am having the most trouble with.
6. Software that would allow configuration, volume, time delay, and equalization of each speaker, codec’s to play the latest video files and support for the true audio formats.
7, Software that could also record from my satellite receiver would be a plus.
8. Making it all work with my URC remote.
Am I missing anyting?
What would such a PC cost?
thoughts???
