Alright Ive decided that I want to upgrade my old equipment and get a new receiver, TV, and speaker package. Here are my questions:
1: I was looking at Onkyo originally since I am familiar with them but my dealer is trying to talk me into the 3801 Denon for $995. I think it is a little overkill for my uses. What do you all think of the new Onkly 696 coming out???
2: I was also wanting an HD capable rear projection TV. Was really concentrating on the 46807 Mits and my dealer offered a deal for $2200. My question is as follows: I have seen elsewhere that Mits will be dropping or has dropped their MSRP to match that of the 47" Panasonic that is coming out. What should I do?
3: Finally, the speakers I am looking at right now are B&W 601 for front and back, CC6 for center, ASW1000 for sub. What do you think? Got offer from dealer at $1700 (about 125 off retail). They also have Def techs promonitors but they seem to be missing in the lower mid base area.
Thanks in advance......
