| What receiver should I buy? Sorry gents but I disagree. A pre-pro is far more expensive than an AVR having the latest features and both will go obsolete in a few years anyway. So why waste the money on a pre-pro when an AVR will offer the same performance from its processi... | |

| I need advice on which speaker Id feel a little guilty buying a few pair of speakers from Best buy and returning all of them.So would I. But I would not feel guilty if I tested a few pairs and bought at least one of them. I assumed this is what you were going to do as your in... | |
| I need advice on which speaker Magnolia/Best Buy has a very liberal return policy and for the sake of a 75 mile drive, suggest you take advantage of this and buy a few a pairs knowing you can get a full refund from them.B&W's have metal tweeters or in the case of their 800 ... |
