    Which one-----Denon AVR3801 or Harman Kardon AVR7200

    I am looking at both these receivers and am having a hard time deciding. I need some help here please. What is your opinion?? Or is it worth breaking out the $$$ and going for the THX Ultra2 Certification and going with the Denon AVR4802R.

    Wiring the rear speaker of a 6.1 speaker set-up using a 7.1 receiver?

    I am fairly new to HT and am a little:confused:so this question may sound dumb. On a 7.1 receiver you have a surround back R & L speaker terminal. But since I am using a 6.1 set-up I have only one rear speaker. Do I connect it to the back R or L? Any help here is appreciated.

    Laying bookshelf's on their side?

    What do you guy's think about the NHT M5 or M6's. According to NHT and all the reviews I could find, it seems like these speakers were built just for this type of application. SQ vertically or horizontally is supposed to be the same and as per their site "a unique dual mode crossover with two...

    Laying bookshelf's on their side?

    He did not mention anything about a tweeter mounted on the outside of the enclosure. His idea of plugging the port was only if absolutly needed, his feeling is that once the nitch was soundproofed this would probally not be necessary. If it did need to get plugged he felt the sub would more than...

    Laying bookshelf's on their side?

    Thanks Mark! I have been looking at M&K's site recently and will have to check out the others mentioned. The front of the nitch will be speaker cloth mounted around a frame that will cover the opening, so the speaker can sit about an inch from the edge. I know it is less than perfect design...

    Laying bookshelf's on their side?

    I have a built in entertainment center in my house. The nitches for left and right fronts are 24"L x 12"H x 24"D. This leaves me with little option other than to lay the speaker on it's side.

    Best HD Direct TV Sat. Receiver

    Thanks again Rob. Please pardon my ignorance, this HD stuff is all new to me. I believe the Pioneer does not have the receiver built in, is that correct. I also heard that the Pioneer has a better line doubler and stretch modes but the may be redundant again. Any help here is very much appreciated.

    Best HD Direct TV Sat. Receiver

    Thanks Robert! It is for a new HDRPTV, either Mit Plat 55 or Pioneer Pro 530, I haven't decided yet. Doesn't the Zenith have some remote features that the Sony does not? Also when you say the "same" reciever does that mean the same company builds them for both Sony and Zenith?
