Hi folks,
I have just got a bankers bonus (no no no kidding!!!), and I am looking to upgrade one or two components of my home AV setup...
Current stuff:
Pioneer Kuro PDP LX5090 display panel, Pioneer XSV-1016-S AV Receiver, SVS SBS-01 5.0 bookshelf speakers, SVS PB10-NSD 'Textured Black' "boofer" lol!
Harmony One, Xbox 360, Popcorn Hour A-110 with 1TB Harddrive, V+, Sky+HD And plain ol' Internet.
I was looking for the possibly weakest link in my setup and it appears to be my AV Receiver, Pioneer 1016 which serves me fine at the moment, but is not ready for HD audio of Blue-Ray. It is also not
I am planning to get a Blue-Ray player at some point in a year's time, but would not mind upgrading my AV receiver to something recent at this point. I am thinking that this may actually improve the video and sound quality of my current setup (Please enlighten me on this).
-As always is the case, I am not sure where to start?
-Am I actually barking at the wrong tree? Shall I upgrade something else at the moment? Or that nothing needs an upgrade?
-As I have no idea currently what component to get, the budget is no issue at the moment.

Please send me all comments!
