The Bottom Line:
Get it or go to the theater weekly for $7.50 a pop and plan on going to pee after drinking that 5.50 Coke. Update: Go with the TX-DS797
This is one superior audio component YOU MUST HAVE! 6.1 Dolby Digital, DTS, THX ES.... What else could you possibly want? "Oh, its not 7.1!" Add the M-282 and and you got 7.1 at half the price. Plays movies like Saving Private Ryan, Pearl Harbor, Star Wars Episode 1, Days of Thunder just as if your there. Never been shot at? Raced a car at almost 200 miles per hour? What about Pod Racing? How about that weekly NASCAR race? You may not be there but you sure as HELL will feel like you are. Great additions are a Direct TV system with a Dolby Digital out or HDTV with a Dolby Digital out. Not George Lucas huh? Can't afford THX certified speakers? Go for some Yamaha NS A200XT's for the fronts, JBL N-26's for the surrounds and rears, JBL N-Center for the center channel, and a JBL PB10 or PB12 for a sub. Bottom line..... EXCELLENT!
Update: My TX-DS787 began to have serious problems that affected the video fed through. The screen would flicker wildly and would not stop. Sent to Circuit City repair in Dallas twice and was not fixed. After over 2 months I demanded a new one or upgrade. I was presented with the TX-DS797 for 150.00 more. This unit has proven to be better than my 787.
