I find the Best Buy employees uniformly nice and they attempt to be helpful, though with varying degrees of ignorance. Unfortunately they are put in the role of expert advice giver "we don't earn commissions - so you can trust our advice" but I blame the company for that.

I went to two best buys to listen to the Pioneer 563A - neither place had it or any other SACD player hooked up. Neither place was able to figure out how to hook it up. But, at least they tried!!

The only thing Best Buy will try to help me with is an extended warranty. I don't use extended warranties.
The employees are expected to gain product knowledge on their personal time and that's very unethical in my opinion. Your right, it's not the employees fault most of the time, I just have bad luck getting an arrogant moron that wants to sell me an extended warranty and didn’t even know the answers to my questions or even try to read the box.
The one here in Colorado Springs is really bad, I think they just needed warm bodies. The poor kids that work there are just doing what their told. Circuit City is just as unpleasant to shop at.

Not a problem at all, I realize that most good electronics are made over seas, I was just curious about the Axiom drivers... The Toshiba I was referring to is a progressive scan DVD player, not a TV, that is why I have a Sanyo projector for the HT. I do have a Toshiba 32" HDTV Flat tv in our upstairs living room though.

Yeah, those cars I believe are called ricers, they put those little go-kart tires on them and it looks like the axels are bowing in the middle. I would like to see them take those out on the interstate and run a 70mpg or more....they would shred to bits.

SQ,
The information you seek can be found in the Axiom Tour thread.
