HK AVR745
Saw the
Harman Kardon AVR745 at Fry's today while looking at some components for my bro's computer. Thing is pure sex. Billions of inputs, HDMI included. Upscaling to 720p, 1080i, etc. This receiver can handle anything you throw at it. At $3,000 it's also the cost of a high-class hooker.
(not that I would know)Damn. I need this thing to be at least 1/3 off. Fo sho. Very tempted to pull a Ron Artest and work at Best Buy to get the discount. Ron Artest isn't that stupid, even tho MJ made fun of him which provoked him to break MJ's ribs. He doesn't want to pay retail. "Retail is for suckers" - Kramer
(Seinfeld S5.E2). The trouble with latching on to something at the beginning of its shelf life is that discounts are nowhere to be found. Hence pulling the Ron Artest move. Luckily this thing is so out of my price range I'll never be tempted to buy it. I sold my PC speakers with the intent to buy the Logitech Z-5500s, and now I want a world-class receiver / speaker setup!!!
