Hello Badger1,

Are you in the Philly (19027) area? If so, maybe we can get together.

You might want to draw out a visual map of where everything is going.

This would make it a lot easier to figure out where things are going.

Also, IIRC you can't run SACD over Optical only analog outs...

All right, doing this quick so ask questions if you get confused.

You will need:

5 analog cables from the 1075 to the pre-outs of the 1066

6 analog cables from the 2910 to the multi-channel inputs of the 1066 (for SACD only)

1 digital cable (optical or coaxial) from the 2910 to the 1066 (for regular DVDs)

2 analog cables from the 370 to the the 1066 (analog needed to hear it on zone2)

1 digital cable (optical or coaxial) from 370 to the 1066 (will probably sound better then using the analog cables for both zone1 and zone2

2 analog cables from the 1066 zone2 output to the monoblocks

1 digital cable (optical ot coaxial) from DSS receiver to 1066.

2 analog cables from DSS to 1066 (if you want to listen to the DSS on zone2)

This doesn't include video, but component video cables from the DVD and DSS to the 1066, then one component video cable from the 1066 to the 42" should be fine.
