Apologies in advance for the long winded post. I'm looking for new speakers for an HT set-up in my Basement family room. The room is about 10W x 22D x 7H with an opening in the front left by the stairs leading upstairs and a larger opening to the back left leading to the laundry room area. The...
I'm new to multi-channel music and want to pick up the Eagles Hell Freezes Over. There seems to be a few different ones out there. Which of these are the best to get? h ttp://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=40106896&loc=322&sp=1 h...

I was wondering what people think of the build quality and sound of the Pioneer Elites in recent years. I have only had the benefit of listening a while back to a friend's older elite VSX-27TX which I think is a 1998 model and I thought it sounded pretty good. I was thinking of the 53TX or 55TXi...
Looks like the new Pioneer Elite models are due out soon. Pioneer usually has been issuing a press release on the new elite models sometime in late June. So far nothing from their website, but maybe something will be posted shortly. I did a google search on "elite 56txi" and the 3 new Elite...
