And I thought a network rack was scary looking! The cables would definately require massive amounts of velcro wraps and a few cable guides. Come to think of it, puting it in a rack in a closet might be the best solution.

BTW Acid, nice avatar of your TT.

I disagree, how do you get behind the damn thing to clean the connectors or replace/move cables?

Cable guides would be a must here as would a lot of velcro (made from teflon preferably- ) and plastic tie wraps or, better yet, techflex.

I mean WOW that cost more than my car.LOL I guess I ant all that much audio file to get that and then all the ics and only have one componet. Now for the other high end componets and it will probley cost more that my house. Oh well I just have to do with my sony 5.1 500 watt receiver and not look at that highend stuff or maby hit the lotto and then see if they have a better one.

You mean about the closet? Sorry, let me elaborate: I mean in a walk-in closet turned sideways so that you have easy access to the back. Sorry, I forget that words tend to bring up different pictures in different people's heads.

I've seen that receiver in crutchfield for a while now, its wild...i love it...more stuff to play with

Now, you buy that thing, i dont think you could ever complain you dont have enough speaker outputs

That receiver reminds me of those cartoons that had the lights that caused seizures. I think if you stared at all those connections for long enough you would have a seizure.

If you used all those connections with highend stuff and good ics how much would the cost be then?

 

[RVD]

I imagine if using just $100 dollar cables it would run $15000 to $20000 with the receiver and all the cables. I don't even want to think what it would cost for all the equipment that can be hooked up to it.

I own the previous version of that receiver, the 5800. Since the 5803 came out, you can find the 5800 at half off or more. It's very very good.

is it just me or just one look at the back of that receiver it screams denon all the way...i guessed it without even reading anything else....denon always seems to make that one receiever that just makes me think....who cares if i have enough to buy the receiver...i want the money to buy everything else to go with it.....

ps: how is the headphone output ..

 

[markl]

The headphone jack is actually very good, but only when I use the Denons DACs in stereo mode and feed it the signal straight off my SCd-333ES's digital out. It has a billion uber-powerful DACs in there and when you set the mode correctly, it uses like a dozen per channel on your Redbook CDs, plus it upsamples to 24 bits. It's a real computing powerhouse.

I wish I could figure out a way to send that signal out again in analog form to my Melos Maestro for amplification. But try as I might there seems to be no way to do that.

The tape out won't work?

 

[eric343]

Well, you could get someone to build you a headphone jack -> line level converter... Ask Tangent or JMT, they might know something about it.

just letting you know: my post was meant sort of tongue in cheek.
