I see two possibilities here, either Denon designed the worst digital interface in the history of the world (it requires a $500 cable to reliably cover a 5 foot distance) or, they are defrauding the gullible audiophiles. Given Denon's long history of decent electrical engineering I'm leaning towards the marketing department and management deciding to hop on the ever growing snake oil bandwagon. The total lack of elctrical data on the data sheet from their web site is evidence for the fraud hypothesis. http://www.usa.denon.com/ProductDetails/3429.asp Paul > Regards > > Mike -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
