Could you please elaborate on this? I currently own both systems and I can honestly say that Xbox360 has the edge in the looks department as of right now. Resistance Doesn't come close to gears of war and all the multi platform games "COD3, NFS: Carbon, etc... All look better on the Xbox360. If...

Philips Pronto Professional TSU-9600 and Serial Extender RFX9600. Get that baby programmed and up and running you will be a happy man.

You sure seem to have pretty strong opinions about equipment you dont own and generally have no real knowledge about other than things you have read or maybe a store demo here and there. And if everyone thought like that we would never be lucky enough to see the 2nd generation of anything...

Tawnos, I like how you take half a post from 1 person and then take another half post from someone else in which Macca350 was correcting the intial posters mistake and bend them to sound like you made a point or something...lol You just never quit do you.:rolleyes:

The firware update 2.0 from Toshiba allows for 5.1 TrueHD to be passed using either the analog outputs or raw PCM thru HDMI, It also addressed the 720p problem. There is no conversion of TrueHD to DD+ when using current HDMI either 1.1 or 1.2, The Toshiba players do however re-encode anything...

Wow Tawnos, once again you are so far off I dont think your reply is even from this planet. I will answer you once and that's it, you can continue but if memory serves me correct in another thread you were bashing me and levesque saying it's not possible to get TrueHD sound and 1080p through the...

The receiver may not decode it yet, But I am currently allowing my HD DVD player to do the decoding of TrueHD and passing it as raw pcm form over HDMI to my Denon 5805MKII. So you do not need 6 analog cables, as I said earlier you simply need an HDMI compatible receiver.

While I do think the 5910 is a great player, I also think it is a poor value. The arguement about HD DVD and Bluray not having enough content i moot now in my eye's. I have great respect for Gene's reviews {he writes the best ones I've read} but having to watch lethal weapon 1 or water world...

The audio was great, the video is good, the movie is easily the worst of the series...

HD DVD has the leg up in the race so far because of the codecs they chose to use {VC-1} which is superior to that of Sony {MPEG2}. A few recent titles from bluray {warner titles} that have used VC1 seem to be close to par with what HD DVD is putting out. Some movies will look better than...

That is the biggest lie I think I have ever heard from a salesman... lol, It seems everyday just when I think best buy/ future shop/ curcuit city employees are about as uninformed as it gets something like this pops up and the hit a new low in my books... oh well, atleast it was good for a laugh.

you say the 5805 cannot be upgraded to ALL of what the CI model has, what will you be able to upgrade it to? And also as far as I can tell by the 5805CI write up the only main differences are the XM radio and the Audessey upgrade. Is there any specific reason why the audessey upgrade cannot...

Gene, Do you have any info now of the 5805CI and if the original 5805 can be upgraded to match it in performance?

One major Blu-Ray manufacturer {Pioneer} recently announced they are on middle ground now and making an HD DVD drive...

the US MSRP for the pearl is $5499.00 lowest advertised price allowed is $4999.99 and it comes out in october.

I emailed Denon Canada about the new 5805CI to see if there would be an upgrade available, here is what they told me. Good Day, There is an upgrade in the works for the AVR-5805. This upgrade would give you Ethernet connectivity, 5 HDMI inputs and 1080P scaling, making your 5805 an...

Yes the Toshiba player does the decoding and sends the PCM stream over HDMI to the receiver. Sounds great!

That's Funny Levesque, I just finished upgrading my HDDVD player to firmware 2.0 and watched about half of Training Day playing Dolby TrueHD 5.1 hooked up to my Denon 5805 through HDMI 1.1 The sound is awesome, I am sure we will get some other spin to his story now. lol Have fun and...

The 5805 is an awesome receiver wwith alot of power and functions. The only gripe I have with the unit is it does not have a sleep function or a night mode. Other than that possibilities are endless.

Will the 5805 and MKII be upgradeable to the new 5805CI Gene? Thanks for the reply,
