    It's interesting that Marvey didn't even know that the Holo does DVD before he started his "review". This is the least friendly and thin skined forum I've ever encountered.
    Super Best Audio Friends. Hah! A misnomer to say the least.

    I don't know of any community, real or virtual, where newcomers are instantly regarded as "friends".

    As least not in any meaning of the word that has any value whatsoever.

    Friendship is something that develops over time. And, like most friendships, that doesn't mean everyone always sees eye to eye, nor does it mean that people won't get pissed at each other. There's a bit too much conflation with "friend", in real terms, vs. it being some near-random connection you got with someone's second-cousin-twice-removed-sister's-mother's-nephew's-teacher on "Facebook". This place is more about the former, less the latter.

    Hello there. Welcome to the field of dicks. You might want to use your 3rd post in the introduction thread.

    That is quite the call out..Marv you should probably add a DVD component into your review or prepare to look like a fool in the eye's of Randos everywhere :D

    Kitsune needs to wipe all the marketing off their holo dac sales page and replace it with that DVD commercial

    I'm the guy who was going to be part of the L1, L2, L3 yiggy comparo in Seattle. I've ordered the L2. Well, I see I have 5 dislikes already. That was quick. :(That's a new first for me. I've posted on many forums and this the first time I've received any dislikes. Sure is a hair trigger here.

    BTW What is a trophy point? I've got one of those.:):headbang:

    Real curious way to introduce yourself to a new forum by insulting everyone.

    Yes, I know who you are.

    And, I'm afraid that "was going to be part of" (emphasis mine) is accurate. If this is how you conduct yourself around new people and new places online, there's little incentive for me to invite you into my home.

    Is there something wrong with this site? There is a delay between key strokes that makes typing difficult. It doedsn't

    I would love a DAC that could accept DVD-A ISOs and natively decode the DTS-HD signal for my HT. I have about 50 DVD-A discs with the ISOs ripped and no good way to play them these days.

    Can't you simply extract the PCM content from the DVD-A ISOs?

    There are two channel PCM streams and 5 channel DTS-HD streams. Have no transport for the latter and my PC can't output to my reciever.
