Thanks for the info on the DVD player. Our player actually is a true progressive player. I just checked and it's a Denon DVD-2800 and says PureProgressive Silicon. The TV is an XBR from about 2 years ago and is HD (ready...?) It's got component i/o on the back for sure.
So I went ahead and got the setup before you posted. The deadline was today as a gift for my mom so I did some more research and here's what we went with:
Yamaha rx-v1300 for $499! Would have bought the 640 but the 1300 was on a huge sale and was the same price.
MonitorAudio Bronze series fronts (mains and center)
Energy Encore 8 sub
Klipsh satellites in the rear that we previously had.
So I got everything hooked up today and I'm still messing around with the receiver's settings. I read the manual and it's pretty in depth so I'm taking my time. So far I'm a little stumped because the center isn't as loud as I wanted it to be, even after turning it up. This is in DTS mode playing Minority Report. Oh well, I'm sure it will take a bit to get going.
Thanks for your help. I'll keep in touch and let you know how everything goes!
