    Congrats on the new purchase Mx. Looks like you got a great deal on eBAY.

    You crack me up dude.

    Now remind all of us what you are going to do with that Adcom amp that you have once you get the Elite in?

    Thanx, ill get a reveiw in. I like this PE compared to the yammer. Just looks better, and probally sounds alot better. I like the features on the PE, like the pull down door, and the LCD remote. 6.1, I will be taking full advantage of that. In that i mean buy a CSi40 and moving the CS245i in the back. I plan to enjoy 6 channel stereo. That should be FUN! Well, I hope it gets here soon. Ill keep ya'll posted.

    The PE has PREOUTS! EL YES!!!! the adcom will be fired up and making my mains scream to hell, I am buying the PE as a Pre/pro, I wont be using the amps more than 4 months if its up to me. I plan on getting another GFA-545II for centers, and a GFA-535II for surrounds.

    The Pioneer Elite vsx47tx is one hell of a receiver.I would go as far as saying it's the best or 2nd best receiver in it's class(Rotel has the edge on sound quality alone),that class would be the 2g to 2.5g.Nice receiver.

    Sid,
    great job! Looks like a winner receiver...looks very solid and the name sell itself. I have several PE in the house, and they are solid performers....let us know how it goes
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.
