What would you do?
I suspect your buyer would retaliate with negative feedback as well. Is it worth tarnishing your perfect feedback? Don't do business with him again. 
video scaler/doubler question
Zspradlin, I doubt if any scaler will help. I have a 50" panasonic plasma and bought ad dvdo hd+ hoping it would improve the standard digital directtv broadcast. If I sent the signal out of the samsung satellite receiver in "native" and let the dv...

Opera Speakers - Opinions?

I was fortunate enough to compare both players at a local shop. Eldarado is right. The Ayre is vastly superior to the Arcam. Not even a contest. So I bought it.

Need Help with Plasma Burn In vs. DLP Decisions
Hgeifman,The plasma burn in problem is not what it used to be but you should still be cautious. I did not watch many programs in 4:3 format. I used the satellite stb format to stretch/zoom etc. When I did watch a program with the side bars I alway... 
Where can I start to improve my sound the most 2ch
The source equipment, the cd player, is the place to start. A great player with a mediocre amp will sound significantly better than a mediocre player with a great amp.
