YEAh you are going to have to buy a new receiver or separates, as far as THX goes you will have to spend alot of money, this is a standard not a form of encoding. personally i would look for a receiver with.
dts,dd, plII,dts neo 6, and plenty of pre-outs. as well as plenty of digital inputs.good luck and happy hunting.

Phat,

yip, you have to buy a new receiver..
Just to correct the above post, THX is a standard, but on pre-amps/receivers THX also involves post-processing.. On my Lexicon, i can watch movies in DTS or also in DTS-THX, etc..
