Surround back spkrs in 7.1 vs 5.1 surround spkrs .I'm currently running 5.1. I have a huge room and I want to add another pair of surrounds...either as back surrounds for 7.1, or running four surrounds in 5.1 via "Y"-connectors.

Any thoughts on the new Marantz HT separates? .I bought the BD-8002 Blu Ray player. It is outstanding. Great on-screen image for both Blu Ray and upconverted standard def discs.

No Audiophiles in Hollywood While testing my new dvd player tonight...I put on "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider". Just before the bad guys break into her mansion/palace/chateau, you get a very quick glimpse of a megabuck Clearaudio turntable. | |
DON'T GET IT ...screen too large = eye strain??? .I get asked the question about the mirror and the sound reflection. Not a problem at all. The system truly sounds incredible.

Anyone using the Netflix Roku player? .I went ahead and ordered a box for my 11 year-old son. That way I don't have to use my rentals that much for him on routine movies. For the newer kiddie blockbusters, of course I'll rent him the dvd with the better sound and resolution.. | |

How Many Turntables Have You Owned .In 33 years in this hobby, I've only owned 3 tables.1. Technics SL-1500 or something like that back in 1976..kept it for 25 years. It was a direct drive machine. I started with a Pickering cartridge back then....then I moved up to the Shure V-15 ... | |
