need a 3bst to biamp the Vandies with the B60 running the highs and the 3bst running the lows. Better front end also although the SACD portion is better than the Philips 963SA I'm using now...the redbook playback is mmmmmm...not so great.
it's a 2 ch HT...that's why I have the DVD player.
I would definately go for the new DVD player. The Sony 9000es is available new for $829 and used for around $700. The Build is impressive and for an extra $249 or so you can have Stan Warren work his magic and you will have something truly spectacular with SACD to boot. It's amazing the effect the front end can have on bass definition and depth.
