2200 is pretty dang good

 

[Seany-izzle]

it went down 600 bucks in less than a month.

 

[posol]

yeah, stop whining... in a year, my 3800 tv is now 2300 bucks for the newer model. lol

 

[Seany-izzle]

the one i linked is a model-line up from the one you linked.

So is the quality of the picture better on the 96? I was looking at specs and pretty much the only thing the 96 has is a cable card which i wont use... Plus, they are the same price too..

 

[posol]

its just their next model up. its probably very similar.
call crusthfueld and ask

Using HDMI cables to connect the dvr -> reciever -> tv. A ps3 is in the near future which will also be using an hdmi cable. Do i need the reciever on to hear the tv (cable)? Or does it have to be on and the volume at 0?

 

[posol]

bose FTL!

and yes, if you wire it that way, your reciver is your brain of your system and will need to be on to both hear and see on the tv.

 

[Seany-izzle]

eh, i like bose a lot. my father, uncle, and a couple friends have it. Its small, which i want, good price, and sounds great to me.

God i hate shopping for electronics.. now i've found these recievers..
Amazon.com: Pioneer VSX-1016TXV-K 7.1 Ch 550 Watt Av Receiver: Electronics Expo
Amazon.com: Harman Kardon AVR 245 7.1 Channel Audio/Video Receiver: Electronics Expo

and the 750.. Amazon.com: Infinity TSS-750 5.1 home theater speaker package charcoal: Electronics Expo

i think i may just get teh 750's and the harman? fuck electronics!

 

[posol]

the 750's are a step up from the 450's. I figured they were out of your price range, which is why i linked to the cheaper ones. the 750's are bad ass.

the onk receiver you listed is nice. I'd choose that over the others you listed.

Although nice, and select thx cert, the pioneer doesn't have HDMI switching and neither does the harmon....


if you want to upgrade, go to the 674-series.
