I've had 3 blu rays in the last 18 month, a samsung, lg and now a sony bdps490, as well as a WD Tv live and 2 mede8er 500x2, the mede8er is definetly best for the job imo, followed by the WD, with blu ray there always seems to be some format it wont play no matter how often you update firmware...

I've been running a 1067 for about 18 months now and its a great amp. The dual HDMI out is handy especially of you running a HD PVR to get HD to a second TV. Dont get too hung up on airplay you can stream to the 1067 from a NAS etc or buy a Apple TV in which case you have airplay for video and...

thanks for the input guys :)

Hi Ken, Any particular brand and model you recommend? Budget wise i'd prefer to not go above R25k but dont know if the samsung es7500/8000 are a step up from the d8000 or if the sony presents a better option.. I think plasma might be an issue for me with ambient light in the room..

Thanks for all the replies guys, may try it out with the sub as power suggested, what cable type would I need?

I'm guessing for home automation or custom installs but how do these babies work practically? Any takers who can provide insight in layman terms?

If you want to stream hd content gigabit wired is the only way to go. I run a pretty decent dual band net gear n600 and a netgear wireless repeater but no ways it works for larger Mkv files, as soon as there is too much action it starts to pixalate at best and stutter/hang at worst. Dual band...
