Rick Here are a couple more ideas. Get a used DISH 811 receiver from eBay, make sure there is not a balance due on it. They have come down in price since the release of the 211 and 622 receivers; it looks like they are selling for around $200. They receive both OTA HD and analog signals...
Have you checked out the deals Dish is offering to existing subscribers? You can get the new ViP211(single tuner HD receiver)for $49.00 or the new Vip622 (dual tuner HD DVR) for $299.00. The ViP622 apparently is not available yet but they are taking preorders.
It looks like the ERS-210 have Infinity's CMMD tweeters. If your existing Infinities also have CMMD tweeters then it would make sense to get the Infinity in-walls.
I'm using a pair of Sonance 623T in my living room as surrounds in my 5.1 system. They sound great for surrounds and very easy to install. There are quite a few on eBay right now with Buy it Now prices between $160 and $300/pair. My brother in-law uses INFINITY ERS 210 as surrounds in his...
I purchased a 33' HDMI to DVI cable from MonoPrice for $43.00. Works great, I see no diffence in picture quality from when my HD receiver was connected to the projector with a more expensive 6' HDMI cable.
I have the PureAV PF40 (AP21300-12) and have no complaints. It looks good, allows me to plug in all components, provides delayed power on for the amps and provides surge protection. The PureAV can be found for substantial discounts online. The PF40 which retails for $549.00 at most local and...
I replaced my RSP-1066 with the 990 in June and haven't regretted it. What sold me on the 990 was the added setup flexibility and features that it offers over the 1066. I'm sure you've researched the 990 so you know what it offers that the 1066 doesn't. Here's biggest advantages for me...
I have the 20" Dell 2005FPW the 24" is the 2405FPW. I have never actually used the PIP function as I only have 1 source hooked up. But the available options for PIP are: it can be in one any of the 4 corners, has 3 sizes (small, medium, and large) and also does a split screen view. The small is...

I would recommend a Carver TFM-6c. They can be found between $125-$175 on ebay or audiogon. Its 100 wattsx 2 into 4 ohms. I had one for a couple of years it was a great little amp.
Thanks for the tip Daman, I just picked up the 5660 to use in a second system. At my local Sears the 5650 is $179.73 and the 5660 is only $168.73. They didn't have the 5660 on the salesfloor, I asked the sales clerk to see if they had any left and he found 2 in the back. The Sears item...
Mine looks fantastic with a progressive DVD player (Denon DVD1600), and also with HDTV (Dish 811). I tried a Dish 501, hooked up to both the S-Video and composite inputs. It was just watchable with S-Video, but considerably worse with composite. With the 811 the non-HD channels are much better...
I have one and would definitely recommend it. I personally find the black levels very acceptable. But like Neil said I would recommend that you demo before buying if possible. What are you going to be using as a source? HTPC, progressive scan dvd player, etc...
