But what is Elite quality? Does it have better caps and transformers? If the 1014 and 52TX have different innerds than their really is a difference. The reason I'm asking is cause I just bought an H/K 630 and I have had a 43TX. If I can get 43TX quality for $230 less than the H/K I might dump...
Let me get this straight. The 1014 is the same as the 52TX except for the Elite looks? How can they do that if the MSRP is $650 on the 1014 and $1500 for the 52/53TX.
I looked at the 7200 for that price but I got the 630 for $689 shipped. Shipping isn't cheap for the 7200! Plus I figured that the 7200 is old so that's why it's so cheap. The 630 isn't very old and I would like to get that upgrade (when it comes out). It's not just a DPL IIx upgrade either. And...
It's very rare that you get a warranty from someone on Ebay. Hometheaterphiles is not an authorized dealer either. They might say that but Pioneer does not.
The 45TX is not easy to find! Trust me I've looked. Most components seeem to have optical more than coax connections so 3 is not enough! One thing about HD programming is 5.1 so people will now be using the digital out more on boxes. The Auto MCACC is a nice feature. But when it comes down to...
With HD Steve I think a lot of people will be needing more digital inputs. I had a 43TX and needed more. I have a dvd player with coax, Tivo with optical, Xbox with optical, HD receiver with optical. Their is no reason why an Elite should have less than 4 opticals. It's a top of the line unit...
Big deal if you can't rename the sources. I had a 43TX and am now getting a 3803. I like the idea of having one cable out to the TV and not changing inputs on it. That's what I like about the 3803. I also like more inputs like Stephen said. 3 opticals are not enough! If you can get a 45TX though...
