I may be jumping the gun here but still would like your help.I'm getting a universal player in a cpl of weeks,probably marantz dv6500 to connect to rotel rsx1056.My question is what will i need to do in the receiver settings as well as the dvd player settings to optimize the dvd-a/sacd.Hopefully someone with the rsx1056 could tell me what the proper settings for both will be.Thanks

Just connect the Marantz to your Rotel by means of 6 RCA cables and sellect the 'multi input' source on your reciever.
Next you have to tell your Marantz universal player which speakers are 'LARGE' and which are 'SMALL' and wether or not you have a sub. Now it gets tricky (with my DV6400 that is). When I set 'sub' to 'off' in the Marantz menu, instead of mixing the bass in the remaining 5 channels it refuses to output multi channel music (2ch only). Even when all remaining speakers are set to 'LARGE'. I do not know wether or not Marantz corrected this in the DV6500...Marantz SR7005, UD5007; B&W SCMS, Nautilus SCM1; Velodyne SPL-1200R -
Hi Rick my settings with a Marantz DV6400 are as follows:Originally posted by rick c
On the player:
-Speakers to large
-Sub to on
-Distances are all equal
-SPL balance are all equal
On the amp:
- multi-source input of course
- Speakers to small
- sub to on
- all xovers at 80Hz
- distances adjusted for my room
- speaker levels adjusted for my room
This is so I have a 'uniform' signal coming from the player. If you start running small or having delay times on the player then they're just going to mess with all of your settings on the amp. Have the adjustments in one place or the other, if you have them in BOTH you won't get the expected output.Comment

rnoble,
I thought it doesn't matter which settings you set on the amp when using 'multi-source' input, since they're all 'bypassed'.
(One exeption is the bass however. The Bass management of the amp allows you to choose wether or not you want the amp to send all bass to a sub or not when multi-source is playing...)
Bottomline, you have to set the settings before the signals enter the multi input which, in this case, is done on the DV6400...
Ofcourse, I could be wrong about this...

I have a 25 year old California Audio Labs Tercet Mk III CD player. At the time it was a $1400 player. Sounded great through my Martin Logan Sequel II speakers.
I currently have it playing through a Denon PMA 2000R integrated amp and some bi-wired Monitor Audio GX50 book-shelf speakers... -
Hello Forum, I just purchased a new Sony SXRD 50", my question is, what is the best combination of settings between my DVD player, Rceiver, (Yamaha RXV-2600) and TV that will give me the the best results. Right now I have my Yamaha DVD player set to progressive, receiver set to upscale to 720P....
