Hey man, I purchased the Sony HT SS2300 and it sounds really good. I have the blue TOC version of the 850. The system doesn't have a DVD or blu ray player but it is made to match up with your current movie player. I have a PS3 so it worked out well. Good system at a good price.

I've been researching tv's for several months and have decided on the LN46A750. The price at Amazon is unbelievable. I'm going to order one next month. Has anyone purchased the extended warranty? I hear Samsung tv's are excellent quality and wonder if I really need a warranty.

Did you go with the TX-SR606? I got it a few months ago and love it. It's a bit large but it handles all audio formats, so I'm happy with it. With HDMI cables (as with speaker cables) name brand means nothing. You will save a bundle if you just go with the cheapest ones you can find. Best Buy tries to sell the Monster brand HDMI cables for a hundred bucks or more. That is robbery. I got my three Belkin HDMI cables at Target for $40 each and I paid too much. Just get anything you see that is version 1.3 or better. As far as Blu-Ray goes, the PS3 is the best thing out there. It's a bit expensive though. So if you're trying to save some money, I have seen some good reviews for the Sony BD-S350. The DMP-BD55K looks nice too, as does the Samsung P2500. When it comes to deciding which one to buy, it all boils down to cost vs. benefit.

Thanks A.J.I have a 5.1 setup also. Does the 920 have enough power and is it EZ to setup?I'm comparing it to the Onkyo 706 that costs a LOT more but seems to have similar specs. What am i missing other than THX with the 920?

I purchsed the 663 this spring and couldn't be happier (although it took a while to maximize settings when hooking up a PS3, PS2, Wii, tape deck, DVD, & CD player and programming the settings- you can customize each input. Between HDMI, component video, opitcal audio, and plain old RCA jacks, I almost pulled my teech out). I believe the 861 has a third HDMI input and slightly more power. I would recommend checking CNET and AVS Forum for detailed reviews. I'm using older 8 Polk RM 2000 surround speakers, 1 Polk RM2500 center speaker and 2 Polk PSW300 subwoofers. They may almost be antiques, but it sounds great.

What are firmware updates? I too am interested in the 1600 to go with my Samsung tvs. I have a 46 and 52 inch 600 series. I also want to have everything I need to make me go Wow!

Kelli, I found this comparison on CNET.com - trustworthy site: http://reviews.cnet.com/home-theater-systems/samsung-ht-e6500w/4540-6740_7-35227915-4.html

Thanks. But still 800$ difference. I'm still wondering anything more... NX810 has blu-ray 3d bundle, but i don't need it just the TV? Is it for those bundle?

I think Onkyo 8409 HTIB system couple years ago contained NR609 and this speaker set. They should be the best match. Otherwise, Onkyo won't put them together.

Mousa, I'm looking at the same thing, and here's what I've found from checking out Onkyo's website. They have all the current models listed with specs, features, pics, and links to authorized vendors (Amazon included). I also recommend cnet's website for third party and customer reviews. http://www.us.onkyo.com/prod_class.cfm?class=Systems Here's a summary of what I found there: The 5300 gets stepped up to the 6300 with up-conversion on the analog inputs plus powered zone 2 (which allows for same or separate audio to be output on two channels to another location), then the 7300 adds some minor speaker upgrades with tallboy front speakers & bass reflex. For $200 more (MSRP), the 9300 gives you THX certification, upgraded optional on-screen interface, a larger subwoofer (12" ^ from 10"), and an extra Composite input, but no longer includes the optional IR iPod dock. I'm leaning toward the 7300 since the cost vs. the 6300 is minimal and the 5300 doesn't up-scale, but haven't made the purchase yet. My local fry's has them in stock and will price match so I plan on trying them out there first.

William: Since you've had the 9040 for a week now, could you please be more specific and give us some details about what you have experienced? Does it do a great job of upscaling non-hd material to 1080p? I plan on buying one, but need to hear from someone how it performs when hooked up to an HDTV and/or Home theater system.? I would appreciate any additional information you can provide so I can learn a little more prior to pulling the trigger on this a/v receiver. Thank a lot William.

I'd buy the Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-Ray player, read up on web-site's about what to buy, Samsung,I have one and love it!, especially that since I also have a Samung 5084 50 inch Plasma TV also, HA!, so far everything I loaded into it has played without a problem, I have a Harmony 550 remote and down loaded codes from thier site and I'm having no problems so far. Haven't used the netflex yet but I can't see a problem there, but I think you got to have to right router (wireless or hard-wired) to use anything your going to use, maybe your just thinking to hard about this crap, buy it and read about what you have bougth and learn how to use it. I have a ONKYO TX-SR605S receiver with HDMI that I run this thru, and I never would even think about buying a F'*ING SONY, I'm sorry I forgot they own half of the ""USA"" !, "OH CRAP", sorry again, Rolacoy, I'm a happy person with Samsung so far, just "read" what the hell is in the box, and I see you know how to use the internet,surf the web and you'll find just about anything you might want to know about this S!!T, hoped this had a clue to what you need, like the old saying, It's better some time's to be going without being asked.

I recently bought Onkyo 5300 and today noticed that S6300 has come down in price. I think spending little extra to acquire HT-S6300 is well worth it. I absolutely love Ht-5300 but the speakers are huge! I like sleeker look of Ht-s6300, plus up conversion, aux mic features are worth spending little extra money. But if you don't care about that, HT-S5300 is very good system with excellent sound.Haven't checked out Yamaha, so can't comment on it.

I'm planning on buying this TV. I'm looking at buying the Samsung HT-Z310T 5.1-Channel Home Theater Surround Sound System (Set of Seven, Black) and connecting thru optical.

I was at my local Big Box store today trying to compare the 3 mentioned TV's and the samsung is a B860 not 850, and I ruled it out because the edge of the TV (all the way around) is clear and it creates a very distracting reflection. And they now no longer carry the V10 in a 50" but have it in a 54", and offers it up to me for $1888., Out the Door!!! I think that deal is gonna be hard to beat ! Is there anything such as "to big" ?

Do not hesitate to buy from Amazon, and do not hesitate buying the 750 if it is in your reach. Amazon is great and 750 Samsung is the absolute berries. I don't think there could be a better marriage of electronics and seller.D.King
