| Are you buying blu-ray versions of older movies? By that logic, why not buy a VCR and get tapes? Your still looking at outdated technology!!! Blu-ray players will upconvert your SD DVDs and when you buy something, say planet earth that WAS shot in 1080, you'll get all the best picture you can have. | |

| Avalon Indra vs Revel Studio2 vs Focal 1037BE The Indra's are an amazing speaker, but all three you mention have quite different sound, so you'll need to pick what you like best and what meets your room and musical tastes. | |
| Denon or Pioneer for HT Both are excellent receivers, but each sounds different. Go listen and see which YOU like best. | |
