I spent the night in a submarine under heavy bombardment from a German destroyer... (1 Viewer)

...thank you HTF!!!

Six months ago, I had a 36" directview TV, cheapy Sony receiver, and a no-name set of speakers I bought at the BX on base.

Three months ago, I got divorced and my wife took it all. Yay!

Two months ago, I found HTF, did HOURS of research, and now have:
Hitachi 65XWX20B HDTV
Denon 3803 Receiver
Denon 3800 DVD Player
Energy Encore 7.1 surround sound

The speakers were the toughest decision, but you guys at HTF have a wealth of information, so I at least had a good starting point. My "dream system" before finding this place always included a top-of-the-line Bose sound system....

Last night I popped in U-571 and cranked it up. WOW! The submarine was creaking and dripping all around me! The dive alarm sounds from behind me to the right, the chief yelling "Dive!" from the left, depth charges exploding all around...it was intense! That was the best theater experience of my life. I owe that to HTF.

I also watched Pearl Harbor. Wowed again. Planes were flying through my living room! Amazing!

So, I just wanted to thank all of you for helping me get my dream theater set up. I also wanted to testify for the components of my system, especially the Energy Encore system...phenomenal.

Thank you again HTF!

Sorry, and congratulations at the same time. Speakers are the most difficult thing to choose in my opinion, just a little more so than front projection. It is a very subjective thing.

If you liked U-571, then you simply *must* also take a look at Das Boot!

Sorry about that. My HT/2 channel bug was rekindled after my wife left me for her boss. Poor guy...
