Fry's has Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ80U 50" 1080p Plasma for $1199 for this weekend till supply lasts.

Well I'm not saying plasma's are only good for movies and sports but go with that panny from frys, its last years model I believe, the new model is 85U but I don't think there is any difference. Very good price.

Well I pulled the Trigger.

Base gear as follows but these link are for reference only.
I shopped around and got better prices.

The Onkyo came today. More deliveries on Thursday.
The Cabinet is behind schedule though.

Did you get the Panasonic Pro plasma?

Onkyo receivers are great.

That is one serious power conditioner.

Are you going to have the display and/or audio calibrated?

Congrats!

Nice! . I have that same receiver for my living room except I paid $930 for it. Salamander stands are nice. I chose to go with BDI instead.

Now all you need are some awesome speakers, Center and HUGE SUBWOOFER or two!

I have two JL Audio F113 Fathoms in my theatre room, the bass is so low it it will literally make you sick to the stomach.

Keep us updated on on what speakers you get.

Yes I did... TH-50PF11UK

Not sure calibration for this monitor is required.
But I plan to make sure everything is set up properly.
