RE: centrally located amp

["JT @ Home" <Jonathan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the swift response,

Somehow, I think we'll be alright without 'fast sound' ;o)

Yep, my thoughts were to use the digi' coax output from the dvd player to
the amp.

The client hasn't chosen his plasma yet, although we've spec'ed a russound
cav 6.6 and s2 keypads and I wondered if there would be any 'plasma IR
interference' issues, or whether we'd have to bite the bullet and use a
plasma friendly receiver?

Cheers,
Jonathan.

We often install a local DVD for convenience and keep the amp central -
no issues to date.

Perhaps you could use a firewire interconnect because, as a rep for a
company that's sells plasmas once informed us, "it makes the sound
come
out faster"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're using a plasma, any delay in the sound might give the picture
a chance to catch up (only half joking this time!).

Presumably you'll be using a digital interconnect back to the amp.

Chaps,



Just a quick question really, if I've got an av amp located in the kit
room (about 30' of cable distance away) and a local dvd player, do you
think there would be a noticeable delay / sync in the audio?



Do many people keep a dvd player locally? - I thought it would be nice
to have this if say, a friend comes over with a film to watch, rather
than having to go over to the node0 you can just use the local source..
And if you do, do you have local amp as well?



Regards,



Jonathan.
