Love your setup photoshop, so simplictic (speeeeling fail), but soo elegant.

But one thing I would say is forget the centre speaker, better to get a good stereo field wiht the fronts rather than using a crappy centre that is widely different. Or jsut get a matching centre and find somewhere to mount it

I have to say that although the center does not look right to the audiophile next to the IQ5's, it is doing a pretty good job. I gave it +2.0 and set the FReq. at 80Hz and it does really sing. Dialogue is pretty crisp.

Very nice

Just looking at stands, can't decide!

£500 enough for speakers/amp? Or need more £?

Btw, what you think of the PZ80's?

My Speakers came in at £750 plus another £120 for speaker cable and interconnects. Plus another £120 for stands. The amp came in at £230 at richersounds. Grand total: £1,220

The PZ80 is awesome. Really astounding. I have nothing but high praise for it. I know the Kuro's are the reference plasma's but for the price of one of those i managed to get the PZ80 and PX80 and still had change left over for a happy meal

Yeah, looking at either of the PX/PX's. And the Sony W4500 LCD's. Can't decide of the two, just seen the pricing of the PX and PZ80's :/

They are going pretty cheap now. Shops are shifting them as panny will be releasing new models soon.
The PZ can be had for under a grand now.

syke · 22 Jan 2009 at 00:52

Yeah just seen it for £800 with 5yr warranty.

Could be worth getting that over the 46" W4500.. Hmm.

Whats the Sony 820 amp like? Been looking at that.

I paid £1,120 for my PZ 6 months ago so thats a very good price
The 820 is very good. Plenty of HDMI inputs. It cant upscale but i let my ps3 do that.

Those remote's worth the money? I've never really thought about getting one in the past but a couple of mates of mine have been talking about them recently and after seeing yours it's got me thinking....

They easy to use/configure?

Oh and out of interest what's the film?

Ye they are well worth the money. I bought mine 2nd hand over at another forum for £120 so it wasnt bad.

They are very easy to configure but you do initially have to get your head around a few things. Im always tweaking mine. Took me a few days to get it all setup correctly to my liking.

the film is Slumdog Millionaire

When the 1100 comes out then I might make the purchase, doesn't look like the current 1000 supports BlueRay or Sky HD.... or does it?

kingy666 · 22 Jan 2009 at 15:45

Oh dear Photoshop, it seems somebody has put a mirror down in front of your tv so you now get a terrible reflection.

the 1100 will not include blutooth either.
The 1000 does do sky hd.
