Thanks. I appreciate your help

400ish for receiver.

Thanks for the tip... I really need to check out the Denons to see what they offer... I have seen many others say that is the way to go.

It has been a good system, but I finished my basement/bar area and have a great area for movie/sports watching on a 56" TV. The sony is ok, but it lacks features on the newer models and it is time to upgrade. I started by looking at some yamaha htib systems, with the though of upgrading the...

Do you have PTAT going on both hoppers, or just on one of them??? I assume when the hoppers can be linked only having on one would be necessary since you can access recordings on either hopper.

Good deal. Thanks for the info. I am upgrading next week to a 2h/5j system. Any advice for the setup?

How ofter does the hopper/joeys access the internet from the devices? Is it a constant drain, or just occasional use when using PPV? The reason I ask is where I live, the best internet I can get is 1.5Mps and my son plays on xbox live. If my daughter is streaming netflix on the computer, or...

Thanks....works like a charm.... I am a happy boy now!!!!
