The TV and HD box are installed and what a great picture. Now I wish everything was broadcast in HD. Nothing like watching NHL playoffs in HD.
I know a number of you are experts so what do you recommend? Keep in mind I'm not growing $ on trees when you share your thoughts. I would like to get a good unit though.
I'll be connecting to the standard stuff DVD player, TV, HD box, etc. A number of zones of speakers to power as well. Plan to add a sub-woofer too, so ideas there would also be appreciated.
Appreciate your recommendations. :6: |

| Outlaw Audio...best bang for the buck. Or go with Denon first, and Onkyo second. Just my 2 cents. |

| Have a Denon 3803 and Onkyo 501, both good! Just depends on how much you want to spend! |

I'll second Cambridge Soundworks. I have the Movieworks 308 HT package, Outdoor speakers and Microworks PC speakers from CSW. Great sounding speakers. |

| The link earlier showing a price for the Denon avr-2803 @ $ 2299 or so is not correct? The price is more like $ 600 - $ 700 for that model. |

| A quick search with "pricegrabber.com" shows the 2803 @ $459 and the 3803 @ $529. |

Is that a typo of Onkyo or a cheap knock-off brand? |
