I am merely suggesting the questions, as the decision are all yours to make.

Are you sending the MPCM via HDMI to the AVR?? So the cable mgmt thing may not be an issue to you, sorry as i didnt know yr setup.

There are detail differences from 1080i to 1080p, but its noticeable.

Simple test for yr eyes. Play a BD scene using yr current setup, as yr AVR will output it in 1080i (am i right?). Then set the BD60 HDMI cable directly to yr LCD (instead of yr AVR), and replay the same scene. As long as yr BD outputs at 1080p and yr LCD displays 1080p, then see if you can notice the difference in details when displayed in 1080p (u did say yr LCD is FUllHD ya??)

Then decide of buying a RM3K++ amp is worthy the upgrade to 1080p visuals (and the boasting right to show TrueHD or DTSMA words on yr 1900)....

Good luck.  tongue.gif  tongue.gif  tongue.gif

Sorry.This question should be asked earlier. Is it worth upgrading fr my current amp(1600) to a new one considering it cant do 1080p and hdmi 1.3. Right now bd60 is doing all the internal decoding of the audio and video. My tv is FullHD panel.

Thanks.
*
Yes, worth it as BD60 internal decoding aint as good as a good avr.

I instantly hear the diff when I ditched my PS3 for BD60 (bitstream) to my 1800. However, I am going to ditch my 1800 soon as I found my new love wub.gif

Yes, it would definitely be a better combo. Power amp produces near to consistent power output unlike avr which will have a dip when you run it at 7 channels.

Partly thanks to the hefty taxation imposed.

A Benz C Class / or Beemer 3 series is nothing in developed nations like US / UK. It is bloody cheap. Here...... only those with thick bank account can afford. That's reminds me of our very own Tun. *cabut*

Read their ad VERY CAREFULLY, it states "FROM" with a few models listed.

Best way to find out price is to walk in and haggle. Desa Kepong usually offers the best prices amongst the Desas.

I was there when they lifted the veil on the new Vx65 series (2 weeks before the official launch in MY), and posted the prices back then, they were selling them at actual RRP.... blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif

How prices have fallen.... with a boost from Yammy themselves during their clearance warehouse sales. Was surprised to see the new V365, V465 and V565 selling at 20% and 30% off.
