    Thanks for the heads-up on Friends & Family. I will inform the buyer that we will need to use regular Pay Pal.

    Help picking a pair of floorstanding speakers

    I am in complete agreement with Stephen Hopkins...please don't let Minimalists and Purists who want to divert you to unnecessarily expensive B&W speakers...some of them like to sit around with rowing machines and $2,200 receivers and think about driving their BMWs...but do not have what it takes...

    Hi Paul With all due respect...don't listen to the minimalist and purists...HSU has some great subs at great prices...I won't stand by and let innocent newbies get trapped into buying unreliable HK receiver, DVD players or any other problem plagues equipment...I continue to recommend Denon...

    Looking to update receiver & speakers

    Hi Timothy I like the Denon 2807. You may wish to take a look at: http://www.hsuresearch.com In particular, the HSU VTF-2MK3 as an alternative to the SVS PB10-NSD. I prefer to have a built-in crossover on my subwoofers. It is not a necessity to have a crossover, however it makes the sub...

    Begging for suggestions for good quality bookshelf speakers :)

    Hi Brian I really like the HTD Level 3 Tower. The 3 inch soft dome midrange is a real advantage as far as I am concerned. Best Regards

    Pioneer vs JVC receiver

    Hi Anthony I agree with John Brill: I would also look at the Onkyo 604, and the 674. I also agree with John Brill with regard to the Yamaha receivers and especially the Denon 2307. Best Regards

But I spoke to my niece and she said, "if you are going to get a big screen TV, get a REALLY big screen TV", so I ended up buying a Toshiba 65H84 CRT RPTV. The picture is great and I would not buy anything smaller. Most people regret not buying...

    Hi Brian I agree with SethH. My personal preference is DLP, especially 1080P DLP. I saw a $1,600 Philips DLP side by side with a 60 inch Sony SXRD, and they looked almost identical. If I had to purchase a new TV, I would probably get a 65 inch Mitsubishi DLP,or a Toshiba DLP. Consumer...

    Begging for suggestions for good quality bookshelf speakers :)

    Hi Brian Andrew is right. JBL has been making good quality speakers for a long time. I have a pair of classic JBL L60Ts. They have the original titanium tweeters. They have very nice walnut veneers. Please keep in touch with me as well. We can help you proceed with your speaker purchases...
