Well, I think I'm going to hold off for another 6 months to a year, until things the next batch comes along, and/or prices drop. I'm really looking to see what companies like Harmon Kardon do with the new formats, and/or some cheaper pre/pro's come out, with what I want. I dunno. Right now I'm very pleased with my cheapo setup in a small room, with a system I have set up suprisingly well! I'm using a cheap "yester-year" Kenwood receiver I paid $10 for (has direct bypass feature and DD) , with an 8" sub I paid $20 for, with some speakers that are worth about $25 ea (Infinity TSS-750's), and an old DVD player (Panasonic DVD-A310) worth about $40!! It's not a mega buck processor system with state of the art anything. But it sure sounds pretty glorious in my tiny space, all acoustically decked out and tweaked! Lovin it!
However, I would like to uprgade to EQ's, HD-DVD and Master, and HDMI 1.3 switching hear soon...
