Good idea, I'll have to compile a list of stores that carry all these units. I already see the problem with only certain brands here than there, and differernt in-store setups affecting my overall listening experience. We'll give it a try.

I also get some price breaks on NAD, Pioneer, Onkyo, Harmon Kardon, and a few others. Nothing like half price, but a substantial amount off retail never hurts. That info may have been helpfull at the start of the post, but I didn't want to influence everyone's comments simply on price. It's the sound that matters, and price, high or low, is just part of the game.
