    The new S&V comes out next month. I have pre-ordered, and so has Dr. Spec I believe.....or is it Polkatese....hmmm, one of those two gentlemen. It is also $15.99 half the price of the Avia.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    No, the new digital Video Essentials comes out next month. And yes, I'm getting it.

    But the S&V HT tune-up disc is from Ovation (same as Avia) and also does 6.1 speaker calibration and is less $$.

    To all those who don't have the S&V disc Doc mentioned above. I have it and think it's great, especially for the 6.1 calibration feature. Highly recommended and it's a decent price.

    Oh yea, sheesh I have been waiting so long I forgot what I ordered....Thanks Dr. Spec :)

    That is what I meant originally, DVE was what I pre-orded. I noticed that S&V was a lower price than the Avia also.
