Congratulations to the early adopters of BLUE-RAY. Was a risky choice but we won! The reason that make that possible was the fact thas MS and TOSHIBA only focus was to gain some time to prepare the MS HD Streaming service for the Xbox and other Media Centers. SONY was the only one thas focus in the implementation of a new format with best video and sound. LPCM Sound 5.1 is only possible with BLU-RAY and is tottaly pure CINEMA in my Onkyo AV Receiver TX-SR605 (HDMI 1.3a), not an amator sound like the compressed sound of the HD-DVD. If the HD-DVD lovers don't ear the the diference, buy another TV and a better AV Receveir (HDMI 1.3a) and you will ear the diference. Probabely you haven't eard the diference before because you have a TV and Soundsistem that sucks(like your HD-DVD). I Know what I'm talking about I have an Xbox HD-DVD and a PS3, I'm trying to sell my Xbox HD-DVD but nobody whant's it after the lattest news. Is anybody interested?

I started to read the comments above and I really got more confused. I have a Playstation 3 and a Sony Bravia Full HD (1080p).

I need to buy a receiver (that suports full HD, if possible that also upscale the DVD from PS3 and my Cable TV Box), that supports LinearPCM 5.1 from PS3.

I really need some help, what should I buy, is there a receiver that really, really does that?

PS. I need also some regular/good speakers 5.1 for that set. HELP ME! Is the Kef 5.1 set good?
