60" Pioneer Elite Pro-150fd Plasma TV Based Home Theater
Home Theater equipment racks made by CWD and Salamander Design.
Audio is processed by the new HDMI 1.4 Edition, Theta Digital Casablanca III-HD Music And Cinema Controller, using Xtreme Dacs on all channels. (5.3channels)
Video is processed by a DVDO VP50 Video Processor All film based sources are upscaled and converted to output 1080p24f to the Pioneer Elite Plasma.
Power Amps are the Mark Levinson Dual Mono design #331, #332 & #333. All Amps are connected to the Casablanca III-HD's Xtreme DAC's Balanced Analog Outputs, using Cardas Golden Referance Balanced Interconnects, with a power output totaling 2,400 watts @ 4ohms driving 5 speakers.
Digital sources inc. the Theta Digital HDMI 1.3 Compli-blu and an Esoteric DV50s for Blu-ray/DVD/SACD/CD, a Direct TV HR-20 HD-DVR and a Toshiba HD-DVD player.
Analog sources inc. the Magnum Dynalab MD-102T Triode Tube Analog FM Tuner with remote and the Esoteric DV-50s is also used for 2 channel SACD's, since it's analog outputs are superior to those of the Compli-blu.
While the Esoteric DV-50s is capable of delivering Multi-channel SACD via it's analog outputs, I prefer to use the HDMI output of the Compli-blu for Mult-channel SACD.
AC Power is supplied through the PS Audio Power Plant Premier & Monster HTS3600 MK II, Granite Audio Model #560 AC Cables are connected to the PS Audio Soloist & Power Port AC wall recepticles.

UPDATE! Jan. 6th, 2011
I am very proud to announce that the Casablanca unit pictured above was chosen to be
"The Worlds First, HDMI 1.4 Edition, Casablanca III-HD Music And Cinema Controller".
It has now possible to have a production model CB-III upgraded to HDMI.
Although it is a standard production model in almost every way, this particular CB-III had been factory built with unique custom cosmetic work performed.
This customization was very kindly furnished by Theta to meet my personal requirements.
Theta Digital was also kind enough to similarly customize the new
Compi-blu, Blu-ray player, so that it too would visually enhance the appearance of my system and perfectly match my new CB-IIIHD!
These seemingly little things play an important part in what has helped Theta stay at the forefront of the high-end audio industry for so many years.
I cannot help but to once again thank Craig Shumer of Theatermax LLC. in NJ for making it possible for me to get "The Worlds First HDMI Edition, Casablanca III-HD Music And Cinema Controller" and at the same time, convince Theta Digital to go out of their way to produce just this one customized machine for me.
Few companies would take the extra time, at this critical point, to go out of their way to cater to a particular clients vanity. But that is what Theta Digital has graciously done for me.
It works and sounds amazing too!
