It looks like a good attractive solution for storing blu rays

Yep, it definitely is, and holds loads of Blu-rays.

If everyone is so happy then why all the arguing on various threads and forums?

Capt - I think you are missing the point somewhat? I think we are giving ideas of well partnered kit. No argument. Just that we have found kit that we are satisfied with.

Hey Ho.

Hey Ho.

Maybe I am.  Or maybe you are missing my point.  Smile

This is my dad's when he had the Pioneer Vsx-lx70 with the B&W XT speakers, and the Pioneer 427xd TV.  He has always been happy with it, but it would probably sound better with a Yamaha amp, so we did a swap of amps and now he has my Sc-LX81 Pioneer amp and I have his LX70 amp.  The Lx81 gives he XT speakers more control and has a better suited sound than the LX70 amp did.

Very happy with my system (see sig) . . . . but content/satisfied? . . . . . Never!

I started out with the upgrade bug some time ago - its now become a terminal disease! Datasat RS20i anyone?!
