G:

Thanks a bunch. The cable will cost as much or more than the DVD player, for a good quality cable of this length. I have used ImpactAcoustic.com in the past.

Do you recommend another source for good quality (and long) cables?

I will check the HDCP issue with Sharp.

From your response, I assume I will see a difference in using the HDMI/DVI input vs. the component input, with all things being equal?

I am trying to keep my significant investment as current as possible and this seems to be a worthwhile upgrade when I weigh the costs.

The Outlaw 950/755/M-200 combo, along with the full compliment of Paradigm Speakers (2-Studio 60's, 2-Studio CC v2, 2-Studio ADP's, 1-2200 SW) have been amazing. I followed some of your very early posts, and appreciated the advice on this setup. There are times I am tempted to upgrade my pre-amp, but I don't see the benefit at this point.

Thanks again.
