Receiver: Onkyo TX-SR503 75 x 7
Fronts: Polk Audio Monitor 40 (Triangled toward "me" Bi-wired)
Center: Polk Audio CS1

    You need to be more specific in your line of questioning.
    Equiptment wise, i'd get a better dvd player since that might be the weakest link. even a sony ps2 used as a dvd player and a game console might be perfect for them.

    Both your kids have projection TVs in their bedrooms? At that age?

    Christ.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Better just hope they haven't been damaged for life already. I mean cheapy dvd players? Don't they deserve MUCH better than that? Don't be too hard on yourself when you come to the realization.

    Man, sounds like those kids have it good. I like hearing that. Contrary to what many think, 'things' dont spoil kids, lack of discipline does, imho. Go ahead and hook the boyz up.:D

    You are the best freakin dad ever!! Got room for one more? (although I see ohskigod and zero have dibs) I'm 30 and potty trained.

    I second the PSW 10 comment. You can do better and stay at the same price point. Buy a bottom of the line Velodyne or something.
