hey elitefan this is Sarandon. I had just tried out the new Yamaha RX-V1400 and I was dissapointed how the receiver was set up. To me the damn thing was like it was put together to fast. The cool thing that the THX processing did a great job taming the Yamaha's brightness. Also the RX-V1400 does not have THX post processing for DPL II or DTS Neo:6 Movie modes. Now I know that you said that Klipsch and Yamaha sound bad together but I will try it anyway with the RX-V1400. And if I dont like it, I will return it and try to get the Pioneer Elite VSX-55tx. When I get the VSX-55TX, I will need your help. And do you know if the 55tx has the new Dolby Pro Logic IIx? DPLIIx is a new decoding that takes a two channel or 5.1 channel source and turns it into a 6.1 or 7.1 surround sound. Can you find out for me if the 55tx has it?

Sarandon, I just looked at Pioneer's website[www.pioneerelectronics.com] and it only mentions Pro LogicII. I don't no if this would be a deciding factor for you but hope not. My roommakes it impossible for me to have a 6.1 or 7.1 system anyway and I would rather use the back surround amp to drive my kitchen speakers but it does see like Pro LogicIIx would be a nice feature. I find Pro Logic II to be so much better than regular Pro Logic for cable movies and tv but don't use it much for music. Good luck.
