Thanks Campell. Right now, I have optical audio connecting the Sat box to the receiver and Coax audio from DVD/VCR box to receiver. works pretty good. The remaining thing is to get a couple of RF to RCA adapter to use the existing in wall RG as video only transport (rather than RF). In the...

Hi Robert, thanks for the tips, exactly the kind of information that I am looking for. It sounds like my best bet is just to run a sub cable (rather not go through the wall, but in this case, it's probably worth it). The A7-900 is very nice, but over kill for what I have (the Onkyo 5.1 is a $95...

Christoper Plummer as Wellington?? Saw it when it was first released in the dark ages.. Yes, awesome battle scenes.

>>It's a shame, the trailer was excellent!

>>I saw it on HBO last month and that's what propted me to start looking for it. The version on HBO didn't look as blurry as the dvd but that may not mean much.
