Will the RX-V365 play LPCM 5 channel audio through HDMI (from a PS3?). Or is it HDMI video pass-through only? A friend of mine is wanting to start a surround sound setup, but doesn't have a lot of cash to spare, and so I am trying to help find them a decent AVR that will accept the LPCM signal...

Ok, so I am in kind of a pickle... My father-in-law has built a home theater room, and then charged me with getting all of the equipment, etc, and setting it up... well he did not talk to me or take any of my suggestions into account in the design phase of the project, so now I am having to make...

Heya Guys/Gals, I just bought a house and currently working on a 100 different things, but the lady of the house has approved some surround sound speakers... if they are unobtrusive... so I was thinking about some in-ceiling speakers. But I have a tight budget and can only spend about...

Anyone ever heard/used/own these towers? My soon-to-be father-in-law is looking at them for his home theater. Any info on them would be greatly appreciated.
