Hi Russ,
this is exactly what i was thinking about - that the signal from BS9000 isn't as clean when it has to go through BV7 to BL5s. In the case you described ( S/PDIF option ), i presume the BL5s are still somehow connected to the BV7 - how?
And if I wanted a pair of BL3s in the back, for a surround sound setup, which would use only be used for movies, I guess the BL3 would go into the BV7 via PowerLink and the BL5s would stay connected to the BS9000 via S/PDIF cable?
Sorry for the newbish questions, but I haven't really found any material on this topic, so if anyone knows where I could, please let me know.
