    budget dvd mp3 player recomendations...

    Konrad, How do you connect a digital out to receiver for mp3 playback. I thought the mp3 decoder converts it to analog signal which needs to be hooked up through the A/V line-outs? If SD2800 is doing digital reconversion, it means it downconverting the mp3 format directly to a digital format...

    Best center channel for under $200 street price ?

    I have pinnacle gold reference towers with the pinnacle widescreen center for my hometheater setup and am extremely happy with their quality. I got the pinnacle center speaker for $109 plus shipping from egghead.com. Don't know if it is still available there though.

    JBL S412s -- Anyone heard them?

    I heard them in Best Buy a few months back and liked them a lot. I did not buy them though as I found Pinnacle speakers that I like for a lower price.

    Sony Str-Db930 Users----What speakers do you use?

    I have an STR DB940 and use it with Pinnacle gold reference towers for fronts and pinnacle wide screen center. The three speakers together cost ~600$ and excellent buy in my opinion.
