I have a nice HD HT system with a 55" Mits RPTV and a Samsung HD DirecTV rcvr. Looking forward to the HD Tivo's whenever they actually arrive. My favorite device is the programable Pronto remote. Push one button and the whole system turns on and goes to the appropriate inputs for DVD, HD, VCR, etc.

In fact 90% of my non-work related computer time is reading this forum and the AVS HD forum.

So, yeah I guess I like my home theater.

I love my Mitsu 65" WS-65713 intergrated HD system with HDNET
programing. You can hook everything up to it except for a space station. Sure is nice posting from my laptop on the TV. You gotta love that Netcommand

Those B&W's are about double the price of my KEFS.
But my Miller & kreisel subs make up for it.
I only get a limited number of channels with the HDnet programing but in about another year or so there will be more available.
I still haven't figured out all the thing's that i can hook up using netcommand.

Sure is nice when you actually see the true color of a uniform in HIGH DEF.

Check out this site for speakers made in Thailand.
I've got a pair for my Home Theater/Music system.
Awesome sound, and incredible looks. Say no to boxes.

Watching Deadwood in HD and listening to that foul language through Klipsch's is something I look forward to every Sunday evening. Cheryl and I can't wait for June and the start of Six Feet Under.
