Secondly, as you have a 568.2 you most probably have some very good power amps (if they have balanced inputs its even better). I would really recommend you get one of these to replace your 568 for next-gen movie formats.

Those are pretty bold statements.

Although I have nothing against Panasonic to say they are the only choice is silly.

Why do you assume he has power amps with a 568.2. There are many a folk that have DSP speakers or may wish to in the future.

Onkyo !! Why are you hanging around here trying to buy cheap 568's? you looking to get his 568 on the cheap or trying to push prices down further.

I'd sit tight on the processor for bit. The 1.5mbs DTS sounds pretty fantastic and would put most any high volume Japan made preamps to shame regardless of the logo's on the front panel.

Most BD players have tradeoffs. Some are cheap and will get you by for the next year until something comes along better. There is no one player that's the best for everyone.

Another important factor is Music. There is very little out there that will touch the 568 for 2 Channel music in Trifield/Music Logic etc.

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
