Thanks Shane. I take it that your response is yes that HD programming can be received with a dish. I have a US address so getting a satellite provider would not be a problem
I am curious to know if I can receive HD signals directly via satellite. I live in the Caribbean and am interested in purchasing a large screen RPTV as the price is coming down quite nicely. I would subcribe to satellite TV probably with a big dish offering C-Band, hence the question. Any...
I recently built a HT with VMPS speakers,(mains, centre and surrounds) Onkyo TX-DS797 receiver and DVCP500 dvd carousel. My sub is powered with an AMC 2100 amp. Movies are excellent...the implosion in Ocean's Eleven is the best! However music leaves much to be desired. I am Caribbean and reggae...

I plan to buy a Toshiba 65HX81 RPTV and after checking online I am considering mail order from pac-2000.com. Can anyone who has purchased here offer me some comments? I see that a 1 yr warranty has an additional cost, however I would have thought that for such a big ticket item, some warranty...
