Well I got my DV-59AVI back on Tuesday night. It arrived via UPS safely - long trip from Oregon to New Jersey.
I unpacked it and let it sit on the dining room table until this morning. With much nervous anticipation I hooked it up to my HT system and turned everything on - walla - problem fixed.
Sounds good right out of the box. Will let it run in and report back.
Thanks Dan
Edit & update:
After testing & several straight hours of playing, I moved the player to its
proper space & final home. Dabbed on some Walker SST to the Furutech Rhodium IEC inlet & both RCA ends of digital cable. Applied Caig Pro Gold on both ends of cryo treated HDMI/DVI cable. Connected electric via VH Audio PC to my BPT 3.5 Signature.
Attached Herbies CD/DVD mat & spun up Eagles Hell Freezes over dvd playing in DTS. I have never seen better dvd picture quality and I am absolutely floored by the sound quality. This player is now truely awesome and will probably get better as it burns in.
Nice job Dan!
