Since I've been worrying about other stuff for quite a while, first due to just enjoying the CHT 1.0 and later due to moving, I've sort of lost track. What's the scoop on the newest trends and best bang / buck in video? I'll be needing a 40ish display for casual watching and such in a well lit room and I think I want to go with front projection in the HT. Any links or articles I should read to get back up to speed?

As far as audio, I'm planning on using 8 matched semi-full range speakers bi-amped and plenty of subwoofers (you know me) all tied together with pro-audio type active crossovers, mixers and parametric eq as needed. The mixers (with help from the crossovers) are gonna do a custom bass management solution ...

I'm thinking about maybe using either pro amps or maybe Outlaw 770/755, or possibly a bunch of the M blocks. Still mulling that part, there's plenty o' time.

EDIT: I have 4 Carver m1.5t amps I'll probably use for SW duty. 6000 watts should do it....
