Selling your Polk and Emotiva and letting us spend your money on new toys?
We love doing that.
But then you won't have any reasons to post on those Polk and EMO forums anymore.
Will be fun watching you debate and trying to decide which route to go - AVR vs Pre-pro.
If my brothers, sister, or parents asked me which one I recommend, I would say try to get a new Denon X3400 on sale from Fry's, Newegg, or Electronic Expo for around $550.

I told one of my friends that.
Then he asked, "Which one do you use?"
I said, "Denon AVP-A1HDCI, ATI AT3005, and ATI AT2005".
He looked very confused and said, "Oh, okay."
