Thank you Ed, for a very fine review! In fact, it is because of your review that I just placed an order and am now anxiously awaiting my new PB2+ next month. Be forewarned that I am now holding you personally responsible for my complete listening satisfaction! Just kidding of course! I...

Test Fleetwood Mac the Dance. It looks poor on my HDready TV fed from my JVC but looks good on my interlaced CRT w/ pioneer dvd. For 4:3 aspect tv, something full screen and NOT anamorphically recorded will give you the cleanest and highest rez signal. Fifth Element isn't bad for a test...

I have VR975s and a VR920 center channel. I am very happy with them. Check out www.audioreview.com for reviews of the Boston speaker line.

JVC-FA90/95 $379 Best Buy. As low as $300 online.

I figured I'd start this thread after some debate arose in another topic. Should a subwoofer be used during 'critical' stereo listening? As this is an HT forum, we must assume we will be using our L/R HT speakers for listening. That said... Many receivers disable sub output when in 'Large...

Oops :b , I didn't mean to start a sub/no-sub debate in this topic. Sorry all. Maybe I'll post a new heading though, sounds like it could be interesting.

I have a JVC XV-FA95 and am disappointed with it's interlaced video quality. I love it's progressive film quality though. That is the reason I did not recommend it above for this application.

The re-release of Star Wars (which had the loudest trailer I'ver ever heard - Dante's Peak) was disgustingly loud but I didn't ask to turn it down. The theater was showing off it's brand new DD system methinks. I like loud in general and hate when other people whine or gripe about it, so I...

You can enjoy DVD-A w/o 5.1 inputs by accessing either DVD-A stereo tracks or utilizing the DTS/DD tracks included on many DVD-A discs. You won't realize DVD-A's full benefit, but you'll have a taste. IMO, DVD-A is worth the $40 to $50 premium it demands. Many players under $300 have it. The...

I'll throw in something else to consider...relative placement of the center channel. If your main speakers are close together and your center channel ends up being significantly higher or lower, it may produce a disjointed soundstage depending on your listening position. Of course, you can...

What you describe can be a frustrating experience. In stereo playback, many receivers do not send low frequencies to the subwoofer when the L/R setting is 'large'. In general, if you are a 'critical listener' in stereo you would not want a subwoofer playing anyhow. But for a lot of people...

I have a JVC player and it's great BUT scratch it from your list. While its progressive output is fantastic, its interlaced output is lacking. From what I've heard, the Panny has good interlaced output.

Pick a player w/ DVD-A capability. You'll be glad you did. On the JVC models, it's only $30-$50 more.

You mentioned tactile transducers. I would vote in favor of that. Get the shake without the worry of killing your ears. I've only been in one private residence that sounded remotely what you are trying to attain. There was a 30ft long x 10ft high wall filled entirely with speakers including...

I posted in the HTSpot forum too. I really am skeptical you can get this player for $279 at Best Buy. It lists for $379 on the Best Buy website. I suppose if there were a mistake at checkout, but I've yet to find an online price of $279 and Best Buy is yet to beat EVERY online retailer. The...
