I am currently setting up my HT and am confused about the best way to connect the pj. I have B&K ref 50 with B&K amp and Marquee 9500 projector. The pre/pro only has three line component but the pj has five inputs. I assume that the scaler will have the correct outputs. Does this mean that I bypass the pre/pro to get the best picture or do I just use the available outputs from the pre/pro

Which scaler are you using? Unless you have many sources to switch, the scaler should, as most newer ones do, provide enough inputs for your needs. The only reason I see to connect the b&k is for the on screen display, and then s video should work fine

Hey I have installed many B&K ref 50 and the ref30 before it you are going to want the on screen display. The ref 50 has alsmost no effect on video output it is a really nice piece just run all of your sources to the ref50 and and run one each component and svideo and composite if you have any composite sources to the scaler then the scaler should have a VGA or 5 bnc output to the projector. I have a crystal image v2.0 that auto switches to the highest quality input and that works great. You are going to love the REF50 I am saving my pennies to get one.
