Thats exactly the way I have set it up as well and it sounds fine to my ears. Have you experimented with the mulihchannel inputs for a comparision ?.......

Hi, recently purchased an arcam 360, for the best 2 channel playback shall I connect my dac to receiver via analogue inputs f&r multichannel or cd input, for best signal path. On my previous Denon 3313 it had a dedicated 2 channel setting to toggle the speaker trims etc but to my inspection the...

For what its worth I am using a Denon 3312 with my B&W's an is acceptable in stereo with a peechtree external dac for this source. For movies it is excellent with the B&W HTM 62 & 686'S once it is calibrated with the on board room acoustic measurement and then manually checking with a sound...

It is in Sytem then Unit settings, I had it turned on and then turned it off and I could hear no difference, by the way your settings that you posted have proved very helpful. I played around with the High Clarity Plus setting and to my ears I prefer it off as I though with it on it muffled and...

Hi, have just got around to havng a play with my new Blu Ray and this forum thread had proved very handy indeed, but one question I have is what does the unit operation volume option do !, shall it be set to low, hign or off ?

I recently purchased one of these units and am just enquiring how are you finding the sound quality overall and do you feel that it needs a benificial run in time ?

Official reply from Cambridge Hello, thanks for your inquiry. The QDEO is always operative but it does indeed start to become more visibly active when you increase the sharpness. Regards Ed Selley Well that settles it then.

For all "]751BD users, I suppose you may know by hints in its manual if you ever noticed, let me just emphasize how important is it for you to TURN ON the QDEO processor by tweaking the SHARPNESS to +1 or above, it is night and day for the PQ, it is so crispy and bring your bluray experience to...

Mhmm, that I did not know and I will hold my hands up accordingly, but again thats the reason I am posing the question So really, only way to obtain HD audio is to connect the HDMI from my BLu Ray to the Amp, so on that note I will leave it be.

Not with a digital audio cable feed from my Blu Ray to the Amp...

What on earth would that achieve? In so doing you cannot have surround sound through the speakers connected to the amplifier, and instead you would have only the distinctly less-than-wonderful sound produced by the television's own speakers! I am mainly taking about the visual aspect as...

Hi, for what its worth, I have the Denon 3312, which I upgraded from the 2311, but I never auditioned the Marantz you mentioned. It was a worthwhile upgrade for me and I never regretted it, more power, poise and punch and better with music in pure direct mode, again its not what you are asking...

Hi, sounds like the same set up as me then, have you ever tried connecting straight to the TV and bypassing the Amp altogether ?

Please ignore first post as it should of went like this. :? Is it better to connect all HDMI connections to Amp then a feed from Amp to TV or HMDI connections to TV then audio to amp, note I do have an optical cable carrying audio signal from Sky Box to Amp and Blu Ray is HDMI to amp only.

Just a quickie folks, Is it better to connect all HDMI connections to Amp then a feed from Amp to TV or HMDI connections to TV then audio to amp, note I do have an optical cable carrying audio signal from Sky Box to Amp and Blu Ray is HDMI to amp only.
