Sony 34" 16:9 HD-1 Now Obsolete or Cult Classic?
that sony is nice . i agree with projector recomendations, but not with dlp. i still think crts are the way to go. with a hdtv box they if a multiscan will do hdtv better than anything. buy a good used sony for tv then for movies get a crt with a ... 
Has anyone heard "XM" satellite radio?
i cannot wait to install it in my road car. i think it is much better than fm radio. i never thought of putting it in my home though. 
speaker size/weight vs. power/performance

what is a pair of kilpsch heresys 2 worth ?
thanks jeff. i just put them on auction to see. mine are in ok condition but they sound like new. they look a little used. 
tubes or SS?
just take your main system and build around it. use tubes for the fronts ,and use an add on integrated to run center channels and rears. most dvd players have two sets of outputs. i have two extra systems run like that. it sounds great. 5 channel ... 
Which speakers do the hologram thing?
no speaker will give you a better 3d sound than sound labs and tubes. if you have ever heard them you will see. 
Switchable Tetrode - Triode please explain
why do you have to power down to switch? i can switch mine back and forth without missing a beat. triode is less rated power but i have found it to sound even more powerful than tetrode. 
Amp for JM Lab Mezzo Utoptia's
i agree jadis sound awsome. i have had many of their products. they are tube eaters, as they run the bias very high. their is also a question of reliability. 
Amp for JM Lab Mezzo Utoptia's
if you can find them anything tube research will make you feel as you are their. i have jm labs as well with tube research and it is awsome 
Krell 65M's VS Krell audio Standards
i would think the sonics of most krell amps are going to be hard to tell one from another. i met dan d twice. he told me himself the diferrence between old and new was not huge. i would buy the audio standards myself. best looking krells ever. 
2 channel home theatre?
i dont blame you. 
JM Lab Mini Utopia with Utopia sub?
i think with the right amp the minis sound great. i have not heard the sub but i would think it would be a great combo. jm labs are first rate. the bass will suprise you without a sub. good luck and would love to hear when you get the setup.
