I celebrated the installation of my first Home theater System yesterday, by stopping @ Blockbuster and renting the Blue Ray Discs of Godfather parts 1 and 2. This is the recent Coppola complete restoration (done with the help of legendary cinematographer Gordon Parks).
I've only watched part 1 so far and I am BLOWN AWAY! Parts 1 and 2 are my favorite movies of all time and I've seen them both well over 50 times each. But nothing prepared me for the Blue Ray restored version. The colrs and detail are extraordinary. I'm seeing colors now that i've never seen before. Of course I'm sure my new gear and the Blue Ray disc is a huge part of that, but still....film buffs...if you have a Blue Ray Player rent these films (or buy them).
My brand new system is UNREAL. In a 10 x 12 foot den I had the following installed yesterday, and it is rocking my world!
Panasonic 46THPZ-85U 46 inch Plasma
1080 p 30,000-1 contrast ratio 1284.00 delievered from Amazon
Denon 7.1 AV 1709 7.1 AV receiver a great buy for an intro receiver; you can get it for around 430 bucks; got mine for less from my buddy who's in the business (he couldn't beat Amazons Price on the Panny plasma though!)
Panasonic BD-55 their top of the line Blue Ray 330 from Amazon
Earthquake Mini Me ff8 Subwoofer an incredible sounding Sub (powered by 320 watt bulit in amp). I got this for a steal from my buddy 899.00 MSRP but I'm sure you can get them cheaper. Below they're 536.00

PSB Bookshelf Speakers Image B-25. I've never heard Sub 500 (a pair) speakers sound this good.
Music CD's also sound INCREDIBLE on this new system. It's like I'm hearing music all over again!!!
