Hi Phil,
Thanks for the report. Could you report up which cable you bought? Or are all VGA to RCA coax cables the same pinout? I guess using the VGA switch box isn't presenting any problems? I also have a 598DP which I wouldn't mind still having in the system even when/if the new Oppo player supports DVD-A.

Hi Phil,

I also have a 598DP which I wouldn't mind still having in the system even when/if the new Oppo player supports DVD-A. I would have thought they are all the same .. Meridian would prefer you to buy a 513 of course. I got mine from here: http://www.play.com/Electronics/Ele...Phono-Plugs-1-5-Metre-Cable/Product.html

Thanks, Phil.
So with the switch box, you're not seeing anything wierd when you switch between sources?

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.

Hi George, I thought we'd landed on a protocol whereby threads on the HD621 should be specific and not duplicating topics. Surely a thread about HD621 and 568.2mm is specific and would help anyone searching the site by thread to hit it pretty much right away. This one is only 3 pages long now but it'll soon be more. I guarantee I hate long mega threads more than you hate multiple threads (unless of course you pay by the thread)  cheers
Rgds,
Nick

ENOUGH ALREADY WITH THE COMPLAINTS !!!
I do the best I can.
A Mega Thread is Bad and Mega Amount of threads is bad.
If someone is new to thr forum finding info if it's scatter on 20 threads it's a PITA. If someone if looking for something specific and has to read a mega thread it's a PITA.
I try to judge something in between.
When I saw 568 (I thought, there is nothing that is that special about the 568 that has not already been discussed).
I split many threads too.
