Can anybody tell me why my DVD player lacks depth (flat, lacking bass) while listen to a cd or watching a movie? If I watch a show thru my direct tv receiver the sound is so full of depth and is incredible. Is there any DVD players you would recommend for listen to cds? Thanks! |

Both. Brian, look for Oppo players, they seem to have a good following on a budget. If the budget is more flexible, the options are a bit higher. Tell us what you have, and your usage? |

Nuck - This is my set up for listening to music in stereo. DVD player is Samsung HD-931 conected to Onkyo receiver TX-NR900 by a Acoustic Research Digital Co-axial Audio wire. I'm using the Onkyo receiver as a pre-amp that is connected to a Yamaha M-65 amp. Speakers are Polk RTI150 using Monster Cable Z2 Bi-Wire. Not sure what RCA cable I have running from the Onkyo to the Yamaha. Thanks in advance! Brian |

Brian, a cd player is required for you now. Keep the dvd player, of course, but try a cdp when you can. Do you run a sub? |

Nuck, I have a Polk PSW505 sub woofer, not really a fan. Do you have any suggestions on cdp and rca cables? I appreciate your help! |

Brian, the budget is a factor here. I see no need to overdo the player, just get the source on track. I would suggest maybe a Nad player. Like the 325, as opposed to the 542. Yes, an entry level Nad will open your ears a bit. |
