    The new THX stuff isn't the real news here, the real news is that there is a new RX-Z receiver from Yamaha... tell me more about it, and when it's coming out.

    Arrow Yamaha RX-Z11 First Look

    Yamaha has finally announced its new flagship receiver. The RX-Z11 is a 11.2 powerhouse that breaks all of boundaries of former Yamaha receivers and steps up to present more advanced features than anything else they have delivered to date. First off is the new 11.2 moniker - how can you have 11.2 in a home theater system? With a lot of DSP...

    That looks totaly bada$$... too bad I would probably never use all the stuff on there, but I would love to hear the full 11.2 setup to see what it sounds like.

    I guess if you're going to pay $6k on a receiver, then it's OK to spend, who knows how much, on 11 speakers and 2 subs for one room.

    Love to hear it though.
