I wish you would register like everybody else around here, so I could insult you by name. 99% of HTiB's out there are horrible, and not worth the money it cost to print the bullsh*t specs on the side of the box! Anyone who would recommend a panasonic POS HTiB instead of high current, low-distortion, audiophile quality stuff like Onkyo shouldn't be posting in here. Anon, please quit giving HORRIBLE advice, and go spend you time wisely; learn something before you post in here again. |
