I have finally sold my avs 2000 so there are no pimping comments in this post.---I owned the avs2000 for near 4 years. ---The big improvment was to the picture quality of my big RPTV.--- I see so many jumping on the "Monster-bashing" bandwagon. We... 
HDCP DVI
I have to second most all points made here. For SD;it looks better with an s- cable.---Then, component vs dvi-d--look about the same---same goes for hdmi vs comp.---and one more "me-too"; an enexpensive dvi-d looks as good as an expensive componen...

Center channel mounting on Mitsubishi 52725
I say get / buy /make a floorstand for the speaker. The top of that tv doesn't give you much space to work with.-----Or, make/buy a shelf to mount to the 2x4s above the tv. (Nice choice on this tv.)

does anyone know about c-j premier 5 monos?
AS I have posted what I got for my 5's (WITH the Bill Thallman full triode mod/ add an iec,and all)--- That price is way to much for any stock 5--and a stock unit won't allow connecting any modern speaker cable.---In that it won't accept banana or...

Has anybody got any input on the Audio ref-or research brand sold here???

Any expericience with Nordost Valhalla powercord ?
Somebody elses opinion,/ somebody elses system ?? I say give it a shot. Buy smart so you can get your dough back---But at least you'll know and won't have to take someone elses opinion.---Sort of a take on "one listen worth 10 opinions".>>&g...
