I have both PS3 and the Apple TV. Both have HDMI and a separate Toslink audio output.
That is great, because my audio receiver is bit older and does not have HDMI capability. The HDTV has 1 HDMI input, so it can handle both video and audio.
I have everything connected thru a HDMI switch because my TV is limited to 1 HDMI source.
I run my Toslink thru this HDMI switch because it it synched with the HDMI port selection.
Everything works great. But I have a quesiton on the PS3.

Greetings to all!
I own this preamp and have seen some postings on the web that say that this is the worst preamp ever designed by ARC.

By their reputation, I would be very surprised to find that ARC would sell anything that was not very good. The build quality is as good as any equipment I have seen.

I see that Stereophile reviewed this unit in XIX-11,12, but it seems that these issues are unavailable. If anyone out there has these or anyone with experience with this unit, please enlighten me.

The May issue, my first digital copy of Stereophile, has just arrived. I'm excited! I think I'll go read it now.

I need receiver recommodations for the B&W DM603 S3 loud speakers. They got a fabulous review on Stereophile :-) I listen to all kinds of music from classic, jazz, pop, r&b, rock to some disco (parties). My recieverbudget is about 1000 $. Reasons for your recommodations are preferable :-)Please help me :-)

Looking for suggestions on the best subs within my price limit.
