Aaaugh Please recommend a DVD player
Nice this is helping ALOT. I will look into the Denon and will be interested to hear back on your mod update with a DV45. I am seeing the Phillips 963sa and Sony DVPS9000ES mentioned quite a bit around here. The Sony may be above my price range. 
Home Theater Volume ?
I had to individually adjust my center channel up a few dB's above the rest of the speakers with my H/K receiver. I had a limit of +10dB's and I used all of them. Backed the sides down to about +7dB and now movies sound great.Combine that with the...

Noobie Question on speaker cable for my system
Thanks for the suggestions Well I'll have a 5ft for the center and under 10ft runs for the front towers. Later on I'll have 20ft runs for the rears. At what length are cable lengths considered long? 
In search of a 5.1 receiver with THX??
No Frills or Bells and Whistles that might work could be NAD T7#3 series, Arcam AVR200, amoung others and B&K makes a AVR-507 that bcosts a bit more. 
Castle Pembroke opinions
Dekay, I will be interested to hear HiFi's response. I have heard second hand that Castle's US distributor ended their business relationship and that is why Castle's are on closeout. They are so beautiful; you would think someone would pick up the... 
Omnidirectional speakers. The future?
I am so intrigued with this concept that, I am going to try out the hybrid omni directional Ohm Micro Walsh's with the matching center channel for my apartment. Admittedly, I am a little nervous getting them site unseen. They will be my first entr... 
Castle Pembroke opinions

OHm micro walsh series...
