Upcoming plasma 1080p tv's vs Sony SXRD LoCS?
I did. Its cool we all have different opinions. No big deal. First off, in answer to the question about whether or not Sony would accept 1080P next year, I didnt get that answer. In fact, among all manufacturers, I found the Sony folks to be more ... 
Upcoming plasma 1080p tv's vs Sony SXRD LoCS?
Well I have seen all of the upcoming 1080P plasmas and the Sony SXRD LCos and the plasmas have a much better PQ IMHO. In fact the current plasmas have better PQ as well. I like the Sony SXRDs. Skin tones and over all realism is better on plasmas h...

Just bought a 55" plasma...
There is a detailed stud finding post on avsforum right now in the plasma section in a thread entitled " Oops pissed off the plasma installer" or something similar. It has had posts through to today FYI. 
Any thoughts on Hitatchi 55" Plasma?
Its an excellent display. A 58 inch Panasonic display is in the works for a 20007 consumer release date in the US for about the same price though. 
Blu Ray over/under $
Twinaudio- Actually Alexis Park and St Topez is pretty much for audiophiles. AS you know these are the CES venues that are SOLELY for audiophiles and is one of the few places where you can hear the Green Mountains, Silverl;ines, and Merlins in one...

Good musical sub under $500
Actually Rackons post is kinda funny. What happens here is that folks used to spending lots of money can't imagine anything that doesn't cost a great deal of money could possibly compete with what is perceived as higher end.But with the Rocket UFW... 
musical drummers...who are they ???
I'm going to have to go with Omar Hakim and Manu Katche. I also would include Jack DeJonette just like the above poster.

Usher Dancer 8571- I have lsitened to this speaker. It was at CES this year but was getting more playtime last year at CES. Its sounds great. The newer and bigger Usher BE-20 sounds even better though ( at 16,000 a pair). I would in an opnion only...
