Thanks Gonk!

Yesterday I was able to snag a floor model Panasonic DMP-BD10(Blu-Ray) player from BB at only $99.00! Nice addition. They hadn't even updated the firmware since they got the unit, it was still at v1.0. Applied the latest firmware, so it now supports Dolby-TrueHD and DTS-HD codecs. Now, I just have to go pick up a title or two. Of course, I sent in for my free 5 BR discs! Can't say I'm crazy about the remote though!

Lizard King,
Sorry for the very late response. I simply love my Ascends. I was able to hear them at a co-worker's house when I visited him in Salt Lake City, and I decided then and there to get a setup. Of course, now they offer the SE version, and though they do offer an upgrade path, its about $160 per speaker. I'm happy with what I have. I'd recommend them to anyone. I don't mind giving demos either!
