    Looking for a new receiver

    My old receiver (Onkyo TX-NR818) died a while back. I’ve been through some rough times where I couldn’t afford to replace it. Now I can and I’ve been out the audio game for a while.

    Is looking a for a new tv as frustrating as it seems

    Yes, i did read that thread. then I read another thread that mentioned the horrible lag problems and screen tearing on the Samsung. I do game quite a bit, so a smaller lag time is optimal.

    Oh wow, i feel pretty sheepish. I have read about audyssey but have never used it. On my current receiver i just used the test tones and a sound meter.

    wow, i never really thought about all that. I don't need zone 2, I don't plan to use an amp so I don't really have an immediate need for pre outs. The height and width is not really an issue, as it will be sitting on a shelf with nothing above it. I would like to be able to interface with...

    I am in the market for a new tv. I have looked at the Samsung UN60F8000 and I really like it. But i read about the panel lottery and flashlighting and clouding...ugh, it boggles the mind.

    Is not having TrueHd enough of a reason to not get the 360 addon

    Thanks for all your help guys. I went out and bought the addon. Plus I got Heroes S1, Planet Earth, and the Matrix trilogy for free. You should have seen the cashier's mouth drop when my amount went from 400 dollars down to 197.

    I'd say my ears are...functional. I am by no means an audiophile. I just like to hear stuff blow up good.
