Well i will begin by thanking Ryan for my slow purchase due to our daughters appt in Boston......So i get box. He packs like a pro. Well done sir. His pictures dont do justice. It is beautiful. Super clean front & back. Hook'r up & compare it to the YaQin tube cd player (i took 2 of the same Eagle cd's & with 15-20 sec lead on one of them-i able to A-B compare) wow on just regular cd it is a very close call. The tube cd player has 130+-hours on it w/stock tubes & @ 400.00+ the 100.00 (super deal BTW) Denon did a wonderful job. Very detailed sound & crisp clean vocals. I shut the YaQin off & listened to a hour of Eagles & was grinning ear to ear n knodding head to the Eagles. Very happy with this unit. I can see why they were so expenive when new. I really enjoy Denon products alot. Look forward to buying super audio cd's cause i to have none :( So please excuss me :smile:
My budget set up consist of:

DENON POA-2200
PRA1200
DVD2910
Polk Audio SDA1c's with rdo's
Blue Jean Cables

    Very nice!
    I like Denon as well, they sound and perform much better than their price point.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    I have one of these that I had replaced the optical pickup in the 2910 and was planning to do some upgrades. However, I had to put it back in my system after my Oppo DV-981HD died (power supply failure),
