I've been looking to get a DVR with a HDD, and was looking closely at the Pioneer 533 or 633 models. But it looks like they are pretty much unavailable - looking at mysimon, pricegrabber, shopping.com and amazon.com. If one is available, it's selling for ABOVE MSRP. So, I'm wondering if this...

I have an odd problem - I have a 5.1 setup (PSB Alpha right, left, center, and sub ... Jamo in-walls in rear) with Pioneer receiver. Never a problem, been setup and unchanged for 3-4 years.

I have a HT setup currently that I'm liking a lot, and now am going to add in digital cable. I don't currently use any cable converter at all, so this adds a new set of complications. Also, I'm not sure I'm interconnected as best I could be now, so I thought I'd get some advice from you all...

My first post here and after having looked through quite a bit on these fora for the last week or so, I am very impressed with the professionalism and expertise of the crowd. Glad I'm here! Now I know where to go with all my 'problems'!! My first one is that I have been having trouble with my...
