I am currently planning to upgrade my CD/DVD player. My wife would prefer that
I keep a universal player to keep from adding another piece of stereo equipment
to our home. However, I can consider going with separate units. I plan to spend
somewhere from $1500 - $3000 for a used universal unit or 2 used units. I am
currently using my old Sony unit as a transport with the DACs in the EAD
Encore. My equipment is as follows.

Legacy (CODA) 2 channel amp
Legacy (CODA) 4 channel amp
EAD Encore Pre/Processor
Legacy Focus mains
Legacy Silver Screen center
Legacy Studios for rears
Velodyne FSR 18 sub
50 inch Samsung DLP TV

I have thought about a used Sony universal unit or possibly a used EAD
TheaterVisionP. If I go with separate units, I can go with a transport with an
outboard upsampler possibly with a separate DVD player.

Any thoughts from the members of this newsgroup?

Thanks,
Richard
