Anyone have any recommendations on home theater forums?

I know that none of those forums could possibly be as lively as ours because most of the guys that keep our forum lively don't even have electricity in their double wides, but I would appreciate any referrals nonetheless.

Onkyo TX-NR 901. I get a 45 day trial on it. It was a toss up between this, a Dennon and a Marantz.

I went with the Onkyo because of its ability to interface with an Ethernet connection. If it doesn't work to my liking, I may try something else.

Multi-room wasn't a big issue for me, because this goes into the TV room and only runs the TV room (and the in-ceiling speakers in the adjoining bathroom!! :P). I moved my old Yamaha downstairs and with a Niles speaker switch I am providing sound to three rooms plus the garage. That Yamaha unit is older technology but it is handling its new chores like a champ. I would have considered another Yamaha for my TV room.bathroom, but I didn't see anything that caught my fancy.
