You are crazy if you buy online! How about tec support? Is the online store going to help you install? Manufactures have a factory warrenty for a reason. Sony, Pannasonic, Pioneer, and many others will flat out tell you that the warrenty is void if you buy from an on-line WHORE. Contact your local Home Theater company and review your options. Brett is right, the Sony is one of the loudest units I have ever heard. It's not worth more than $2,000.00 to me.
Get a unit with a controller/switcher. You will have less wires to run to the Plasma. Runco includes a scailer that will upconvert all inputs to the monitor's native resolution while allowing you to only have to run a 5 wire RGB and a Cat5 for RS232. FIND THAT ON-LINE!!!
