In Reply to: Re: Pioneer DV-09, and CD playback... posted by Ron on August 04, 2000 at 12:10:13:
If your unit is new. You'll need to break it in then do some serious listening. Mine is about 1 yr old and I had a chance a/b it against my Sony SCD777ES in my two channel system and I still keep the Sony as well as the DV-09 in my h/t. The DV-09 with red book CDs is just about class B rated at best IMHO. When you hooked up the DV-09 anlog outs to your pre/pro, just make sure your pre/pro has a analog by-pass. Otherwise the analog signals from DV-09 has been converted to digital then analog again by your prepro. As for DVD movies playback, DV-09 is the KING!

I don't think the Sunfire Grand Theater II has an analog bypass. That being the case, is there any reason for me to use the analog outputs of my DV-09 when playing a cd?? Just kind of going back and forth in the analog digital area?? Appreciate any comments. Yes, this Pioneer has wonderful DVD performance. I am very pleased.
Do not use the DV-09's analog outs if your prepro does not have analog bypassed. Keep all signal to your prepros to a minimum will give the best sound. Good luck!
Thanks, Tom for responding to this matter. Yes, I will remove the analog inputs to my processor and use exclusively the digital input from the Pioneer DV-09. The people in the stereo store did not know how to respond to my questions....very disappointing.
