Since kakatapos lang ng awards season, may I ride on the Oscars euphoria, and also express my thanks to:
1. all, who gave suggestions and contributed to the separate thread I opened regarding my search for speakers and patiently answered the other questions I posed in the Recommend a Speaker thread, the Denon receiver thread and even the Samsung 51F5000 thread. Salamat din sa mga active posters sa PSB, Polk Audio at GoldenEars thread;
2.
Paul (@tein) of Sound and Vision, for the Denon 1713 (and the demo of the Boston Acoustics FS, and for answering all my PMs about setting up the 1713 and what speakers can be matched with it) and
Rex (@otep_32) of Watts Hi Fi (for the PSB speakers, and for accommodating my every request during my audition);
3. all the other helpful sellers in Pinoydvd, like @avshop and @E-Reply, who never fail to answer my queries on the brands they carry; si Epoy of Architectural Audio, na pinagbigyan ako sa dalawang request to audition the Dali's he had on hand (Zensor 7 and Lektor 2), and the folks at Sound Dimension, who demo'ed the B&W 685 to me. Mabait din pala yung staff ng JBL Megamall, who allowed me to hear the Infinity Primus 363 and made me want to buy a Harman Kardon AVR. Nalaman ko din tuloy na maganda ang Book of Eli (in terms of sound effects).
Thanks again PinoyDVD! Hopefully, it will take at least 5-7 years, bago ulit ako magtanong na naman kung anong magandang bilhin na TV, receiver at speakers
