Which hdtv would you recommend and why?
So we have 2 camps here, one camp is for the Plasma and one camp is for the LED.It's true that Plasma will be outdated soon, period. However, no one can deny the PQ of the Pio Elite Plasma line. It's no longer in production and now the transformat...

If you live in Hou, TX sometimes I can get you some crazy deal that the BlueBock cannot even touch. Good luck. 
Which hdtv would you recommend and why?
Mmike 84 brought out a very good draw back of the Plasma : reflective glass pannel and also a bit of heat generated. So if you have high ambience lights, move on to the LCD/LED.That's the first question anye salesman should qualify the customer fo...

Ask yourself what features and benefits that you need and make an intelligent based on your own.If you just need a 55" flat panel LCD with 120 Hz, I would recommend the Samsung LN55C630 that you can catch it on sale between $1,299.00 to $1,499.00.... 
How Big is Too Big?
You really need to ask HER. In Texas, they say size does matter. 
Explosive Pops from Pre/Pro
None of those from my 876 Onkyo and my Pio Sc05. Used to owned B & K pre/ pro/ amp and the POP/TACKs are the nature of the beast. 
Zune HD audio cable?
I just bought a new Zune dock for FM listening but the output is nothing but a hissing sound via its AV ouput. I used the $9.00 RadioShack cables thru the Zine phone jack then Fm stations sound pretty decent.I no longer have the Zune manual, Do I ... 
How to play Pandora on mini without a monitor
This is the right place for me to learn about Internet Radio. I used HD radio, Zune HD with no satisfaction abt SQ.Recently, I bought the HP netbook 210110Nr and registered with Pandora for $36.00 a year. I used the old Yamaha DSPA1 with a $10.00 ... 
How good is Emotiva 2 channel gear??
Byston 7 Bsst mono-block pair MSRP is $8k and Emo XPA1 pair is $2k. You do the math. There is no free lunch, brother. 
Have you heard of EMOTIVA?
"..That being said, so is my $500.00 Onkyo receiver:)"I am considering order the pairs od UPA1's for FM radio listening but I have never had gut to do so. I feel safer with Rotel, Parasound and Adcom for non-critical listening. Your message is wel... 
3D Bluray players and Tvs
I do not want to be burned again. We may need new AVRs with HDMI 1.4 capable not including new 3D BR player. No doubt that the gaming industry and the porn movie industry will embraced the new tech. I have a bad feeling that the 3D technology is h... 
Best way to hook up dual sub-woofers
Dave, good info. Thank you. Off the topics, I have listened to my friend's Duetta and they were hook up with a Classe amp with AR pre. I could actually SEE the music. The Apogee is amazing with properly set up.

Dave, Do you mean that to leave the sub corss-over at 120hz while set the Onkyo internal cross-over at 80hz? 
Processor Upgrade from Onkyo 885

Best Integrated w/ Phono-In under $350
Under $300.00, I would buy the Pio Elite A35 R for less than $200.00 if you are not a head banger type of listener. In-expensive yet very musical. Best of all, you will get it brand new in box. For $299.00 extra, you can get a brand new in box Ene...
