About six months ago, my television died. Not a big deal, it was pretty old. But, considering that I was expecting to move shortly, I held off buying a new one . . .

And held . . .

And held . . .

And held . . .

Yadda yadda. So anyways, I've finally gotten settled in, so my TV withdrawal is over . . . I gots my RCA 36", DirectTV with NBA League Pass (true sweetness), and Apex DVD player . . . ;)

So what home theatre system should I get? My options are limited; I've got Radio Shack and K-Mart in the near vicinity. The Shack's got a 350W RCA setup with Dolby Digital for $299 . . . good enough, or should I make the trip to Denver to Best Buy??? I'm not really informed as far as TV electronics go, so I don't know what's good.

Windogg, UGH! I was flipping back and forth from Jackass to the Suns game, and I saw the guy climb in the porta potty and have it turned upside down . . . I nearly got sick. Same guy that got shot by the taser, right? That is a weird show.

Fathom5 - that's for a receiver, sub, center channel, and four satellites.

I bought a Toshiba DVD player with an integrated receiver/amp. It does very well and it one less box stacked up. I was worried at first because it was only 50 amps, but it is PLENTY loud.

It's cold and snowy here in Denver......but I bet skiing is gonna be amazing up in the Rockies.

Xerox, I think you can order your setup from bestbuy.com and get free shipping.

We've got about a foot up here on the western slope . . . haven't checked the weather channel lately, but I think more is coming tomorrow.

Tripleshot - I've only been here a week and a half, I'm still working on the buxom blondes. ;)
