ordered these from raptor, should get it before carnival

can anyone recommend a reciever within the 200USD range
will have to rally with a cheap one till maybe july/aug since i paid a little more than catered for the speakers

might get this to use in the mean while as well

spend the extra US$50 and get this

Pioneer VSX 1022 K 7-Channel Receiver
http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-VSX-1022- ... 007O5ATC8/

excellent receiver for the price - doubt you'll need to upgrade soon

Not sure for Hulu

Vudu used to take TT credit cards, but recently they are rejecting them

Neither takes PayPal from here

Vudu is absolutely worth it - excellent service and quality

Tnx. After browsing the Hulu selections for a bit, I think I'll just not bother, mainly due to better kid's programing on netflix. All of my 4yr old daughter's favourites are available on Netflix and its very accessible for her as well. Will really like to get the VUDU to work tho for those rare occasons when i do get to sit and watch an entire movie. Lol.

Order through the powerseller RapToR, you'll save a lot on shipping.

ordering it online also give you better choice - Klipsch, Velodyne, Sunfire, Definitive instead of being stuck with the brand and/or model someone has locally

Thanks guys, will contact Raptor. Brought in a Pioneer VSK-1022k just yesterday went to collect it, paid 830 just for the shipping and after customs duty and vat, came up to $1320. The receiver itself was 26lbs but when amazon put it in another box, i ended up paying for 38lbs volumetric. I am with JSL BTW who charges by volume. Not disappointed with the product though. The receiver has lots of features.

Also looking at the Pioneer SW-8MK2 Andrew Jones Designed 100-Watt Powered Subwoofer &
Polk Audio PSW10 10-Inch Monitor Series Powered Subwoofer (Single, Black).

assitance is appreciated or maybe direct me to another make and model.

Nice which Pricemart you saw this at? i'll give a review here once i learn all the receiver can do. I bought (2)mediabridge HDMI cables :http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-High-Speed-Cable-Ethernet/dp/B0019EHU8G/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_y
i must say these perform really well, compared to some generic one i had connected to the PS3. The above got great reviews that you should consider aswell.
