Mainly being sozzled. Don't need but thinking of getting something 85 inch. I live here in CA so I can be with my wife.

I'm in the USA. I shop at a shop.. It seems I can't say anything. I'm in the USA. I shop at Costco. I'm so confused with all the OLED, LED, QLED a stuff. Can anyone nudge me please?

But I don't know what looking at it would tell me...

When I came to the US I brought my CD player with me and for years ran it off a converting voltage supplier. Worked for year until it stopped. No idea why. I've toyed with having it repaired. But can't be bothered. If anyone wants it let me know.

Thank you all...

Damn...interesting piece of kit... I'm finding all these choices a little overwhelming.

I still want the flexibility and besides it'll function as my blu ray player also. And it looks like you can attach an external drive, and use wifi, so it covers many bases. And at $500 that's good for me. Still looking at the Sonos too though...do you feel it would have any benefit over the Oppo?

The Oppo sounds like it may suit me. I'll do some reading on that...

I'm considering buying a Musical Fidelity M3si amp, Naim 5si or maybe Cyrus...not sure yet. I may buy one that has a built-in DAC. Unless a seperate one is recommended. (I don't have any experience with using one.) Given that I will probably rip all my cd's to lossless, what do people tend to...

Thanks..I'll check that out.

I have considered a seperate listening room just for stereo but this is why I'm researching the idea... Or even just keep the receiver and stereo amp seperate and switch between them depending on what I'm listening to. I do like the speakers.

So that my stereo listening is via a higher quality amp mainly but it should also benefit my movie listening.

Currently using a Denon AVR-X2000 into KEF floorstanders and KEF egg satellites. I'm considering a stereo amp in the $1500-$2000+ region. Considering Musical Fidelity, Audiolab, Arcam, Cyrus.

(Is there not a sub forum for amplification?) Anyway, I'm thinking of integrating a new stereo amp into my home cinema setup and to do this efficiently it seems I need an amp with a unity gain input. Is anyone familiar with this and how to determine which amps may have it? Thinking of spending...
