Thanks for your input, it really helped me decide, but I haven't installed as I have an important test to study for first. Nov 3rd will be the date we install.

I might sneak a listen to the Denon or use the BluRay to play a disc or two.

I got a TC-P50UT50 50" plasma, retail $1,099, street price under $900
My package from an online retailer that has a local store
included Panasonic DMP BD 220 Bluray player, 2 set of (Samsung) 3D glasses thrown in, and a HDMI cable for under $1000.

Because of my concerns re Onkyo's HDMI circuit board issues (see Amazon's customers comments on the TX NR 616 especially), I forsook the price and features of that unit and the 709 and 717, and went with the Denon AVR 1913, 7.1, with enough features for me and reputedly excellent sound.

I went w Panasonic, plasma, tried to integrate the brands (at least w TV and BluRay) and went with sound over all the latest features.

Especially thank Joe Murphy Jr, MDavis and Hornlover, esp. if the system works out next month. I know it will be nice.
