Great Fredneck. Just be sure to stock up on movies and music your wife likes, it will make the adjustment easier for her. Some flowers would help also.

Let me know how you like the Axioms, I have been eying them for a while now.

Thanks guys. I certainly hope it will be a fun system and I'm looking forward to auditioning the Axioms. I've heard good things about them and the company. I'll let you know how everything works out.

I own both the 990 and the BD-P1400. I am using Parasound HCA-2200II amps for the front three channels.

Anyway, I use the analog 5.1 signal to the 990 for True HD and DTS HD (One of the downloads from Samsung add DTS HD decoding.) The audio on well recorded tracks is fantastic. You will not be disappointed!

Given that it appears that HD DVD has lost alot of ground in the last few months, I am not sure what other sources will be available to decode HD to analog other than your BD player.

I see no need to update my 990 anytime soon.

Thanks for the advice. It's comforting to hear from folks that own the same equipment. I guess you could call this post pre-purchase jitters. I got notification from the Outlaws that my equipment is on the way. Let the fun begin!

This was one of those purchases I had no buyer's remorse about. it is a solid glimpse into serious hi-fi.
