OK, just when I thought the story was over, it isn't...
I went ahead and bought the Yamaha kit at Best Buy on Friday. Didn't get quite the deal I was hoping for, but it was good enough. I didn't open it though as we are having some work done in our apartment over the next couple weeks.
Jump to tonight. I'm talking to my dad and mention that I picked this up. We had been talking before all this about a Pioneer kit that has wireless surrounds. He tells me to return the Yamaha and he'll help me with the Pioneer.
So...I need more help. I'm leaning towards doing this simply because it would be easier financially of course, and the wireless surrounds appeal to me and my wife. There's the first question - how good are wireless speakers? Since they operate at 2.4 ghz and we have phones at the same frequency, will there be any interference problems?
From what I can gather, the receiver in this kit is the Pioneer VSXD414S. I don't see much info on that on the net, but it doesn't have an integrated dvd player and has all the ProLogic II/DTS capabilities. The dvd player in the kit - DV-270-S - seems to be pretty well regarded for a lower price player.
Sorry for throwing this in a whole new direction, but again any info you guys can share will be appreciated. Thanks again.
