Yeah I wasnt going to open it, I would just bring the receipt up there and see what they say. CC of all people at this point would be dumb to turn down any sales....LOL

Do you suppose if I pick it up this weekend, will I be able to take the black friday ad in(on black friday) and get a price adjustment? That way at least I can make sure I get it.

I assume you're talking about this one for $200:

That would be a perfect fit since you already have a PS3 (handle the hidef audio). Not sure if that would be something that would fly off the shelf or that many would camp out for.

Most bargain shoppers would go for a cheap HTIB.

Hmmm....that's not bad. But I really don't need a 7.1 receiver, the way my game room is set up, all the wires hide perfectly for 5.1, would not be so for the extra speakers.

I was really looking at the Onkyo(however its spelled) for I believe $139.99....it's less power than what I had. :- ( But it's a good deal, and I'm sure it'll do the job if I just turn it up a bit higher.

Understandable. I would really consider the Sony though. You don't have to use the extra 2 speakers, but it would be a more future-proof investment. Is the Onkyo capable of handling hidef/lossless audio (either bitstreaming or LPCM)? Good luck either way.
