Unfortunately not[:'(] Hitachi 61" HD TV gone.....[:'(]Nakamichi Rx202 gone.....[:'(] DBX 3BX gone......[:'(] Denon 3805 yep smoked ....[:'(] Sony DVP S9000 [:'(] Klipsh LaScala's, Heresey's, 2 KSW15 subs and KT-LCR center channel all fine!!! So it's not all that bad. Anyone know of a replacement for the DBX 3BX...I would love to find a 5BX

My home was recently struck by lightning which damaged my Sony DVP ES9000 SACD/CD/DVD player[:'(] My insurance company has offered a Phillips BDP7200/37 as a replacement[N]. they feel the upgrade to blue ray makes this acceptable. My audio guys have stated that the Phillips is a middle of the road no frills blue ray player and is not a replacement for the Sony. they believe the construction of the Sony and its superior cd playback capabilities or not being considered. The replacement they have suggested is the new Sony ES BDP-S2000ES blue ray player. Just looking to gather more information from you guys on the forum. Do you feel as if the Phillips unit is a direct replacement for the Sony? If so why? If not why? what would you suggest would be a fair replacement? I own about 30 SACD and would like a unit that does offer those capabilities. Thanks in advance Step

I am looking at the possibility of doing a complete make over on my home theatre. My current set up: Front - Klipsch La Scala Rear - Klipsch Heresy II Center - Klispch KT-LCR Sub - KSW-15 Receiver - Denon 3805 DVD - Sony DVP-S9000ES Televison - Hitachi 65" HDTV w/built in tuner Love the system my problem.....MY WIFE .....(just kidding) she hates the amount of space this setup requires. I already plan to change out the television for the Sony Grand Wega 60" or 70" ( please let me know if you own these units and have any negative opinions), I also intend to step up to the Aragon Stage 1 and the 2700 amp. My problem is that I love the sound of my speakers and dont want to replace them I know there is a line of in-wall speakers as well as the reference series that every one says sound great but how much of a difference will I experience. I am seriously considering purchasing a new home and building a dedicated room, thanks in advance for your help Step
