DISQUS

Jeff, thanks for the response.

This is an age old argument, and it's one that people trying to find answers to scientifically will fail. In my blogpost I specifically mentioned that nothing about vinyl can be explained scientifically. Science deals with objectivity. Almost everything in hifi is subjective. I don't know one credible outlet that espouses or maintains that vinyl sounds better than digital scientifically.

This is no different than people who like solid state amps who don't "get" tube amps, and try to prove that there are no differences with science. I reckon, that's like someone who likes vanilla ice cream trying to prove scientifically why someone else would like strawberry ice cream. When you start tackling subjective issues with science, you simply miss the point entirely.

The Harmon Kardon DPR 1001 does not have any HDMI inputs, so no.

I like "runaway".

It's my life is my favorite too!!

The handling of choppers and tanks are fine IMO. You want crappy car handling, play Alone in the dark. Now that game has awful vehicle controls. With respect to six axxis motion control, only first party titles have them like Lair, Heavenly Sword and Warhawk. Very few multi-platform games have them. Apart from Devil May Cry 4, most multi-platform games are indeed built first and foremost for the 360. It's much easier to build for and their dev kits have been out for use for over a full year prior to the PS3 dev kits. I love the PS3, but their cell technology is a nightmare for developers. It makes no sense from an economic POV to build anything apart from PS3 exclusives for the PS3 first. Hopefully, in due time this will change as devs get more experience with the PS3's cell technology.
