Great questions. The first objective is surround sound for movies. I really don't want to invest in more than five speakers (four if I can get away with passing on a center channel). So I guess I'm looking at 5.1 format, right? My usage balance remains 60% two-channel music and the rest movies on DVD. The next capability I'd like to add would be multichannel audio (SACD).From a video perspective, I'm dumping a Sony 40" direct view XBR and moving to a Panny 50" plasma. I will probably use an outboard processor and I'm not sure about video switching in the video processor versus the HT processor. My sources will be DirecTV, DVD, and Xbox. Finally, I'd like to record HiDef but I think it might be a bit premature to take that on...
