Just to give others an update that's considering this. Duncan's cable worked perfectly.
Hint for installing the SDI Board.
The hole that is already their is slightly large.
The SDI Board I got is the all metal BNC jack and it was hard to get enough backing to mount it securely. So this is what I did. I put the lock washer on the BNC Jack, then this smaller spacer washer. The Small spacer washer just fits inside the hole and keeps the BNC jack perfectly centered. If it stays perfectly centered the Lock Washer is just big enough to support the back. Then I put the Nut on the outside (which also is just barely large enough if kept centered) but with that spacer washer holding it in the center the nut gets enough support on the outside.
So it's BNC Jack, Lockwasher, Spacer, Meridian Back Panel, then Nut. You'll see what I mean if you get this variation of the SDI board(which varies slightly I think, some have plastic BNC jack).
I basically converted my 598 Player to DVI for about $900.00 !!! Avia shows a large clear difference but in the one DVD I checked so far (MIB) the improvement is smaller, but their. This is on a 1280x768 50" Pioneer Plasma. Those with large screens or projection will probably see much more improvement.
$150.00 SDI Board $072.00 Duncans Easy Install $675.00 iScan HD w/SDI (I was very lucky on price on this onecall.com)
Plus cables.
