    Who should do the switching?

    Ah... I wasn't clear on what that digital out was - I thought it might output anything coming into the TV (say, audio on the HDMI connection). -Andrew

    Newbie HT Question

    Thanks a good start, thanks... What do you think of those "single speaker solutions" like the Boston Acoustics TV Model 2 or Soundmatters Mainstage HD? (I'd post links to Crutchfield, but I'm apparently too new to do it.) -Andrew

    Newbie HT Question

    Hi folks, I am very new to HT. In fact, my Philips 52" LCD won't arrive until Thursday. I have a few basic questions and was wondering if you kind folks might help me out... 1) Audio - I am not an audiophile. My living room is quite open, so surround sound isn't going to really work out...
