    7.1 Speaker Advice

    Thanks all for the advice. And I did check ou the Axioms - looks like a good system. I'll try to post some of my finalists in the next couple of days and get some more thoughts.

    7.1 Speaker Advice

    I realize it isn't putting that kind of power out all of the time, but a 50W rating on something really scared me. My old speakers were 100W, so I figured that wouldn't be a major problem, but 50W seemed pretty low. Any thoughts on the other items from anyone?

If there's really a jump in performance for a little more I'd be willing to go a bit higher if needed. My current speakers are just an old set of Infinity bookshelf surrounds that I've had...

    Remote Control Fan Help??

    OK, I am currently using a Logitech Harmony One controller for my system and love it. One problem - my wife and I built our entertainment center ourselves and installed several muffin fans to keep my components cool. We have been using a remote to turn on and off the fans (through a standard...

    Pioneer Kuro PDP-5010FD

    Hey there. I recently bought the 60" version of this TV - Standard version. I don't know what adjustments are available with the Elite, but I was very disappointed in those available for the Standard. They are very minimal. That said, the picture still looks fantastic and I'm happy with the TV...
