I'm looking for advice on what piece to add to the puzzle or upgrade to next make in my HT system:
Sony SXRD 60" TV
Sony STR DA3-ES Receiver (5.1 in HT and drives 2 outdoor speakers on the deck)
Denon 1920 DVD
DirecTV HD receiver w/ TiVo
Klipsch center and tower Right/Left speakers
Bose surround bookshelf speakers
Velodyne (10" or 12", I can't remember) sub
In short, should I:
1) Upgrade receiver (was looking at the Yamaha RXV-2600) for added 3rd zone and HDMI capability?
2) Stick with the ES receiver, but add a pre/pro (I had an impure thought just looking at a picture of the Halo C2)?
3) Upgrade receiver and buy a less expensive pre/pro?
4) Do something with my $3K budget that I haven't covered?
Any and all advice (for someone that knows displays very well, but that's about it) will be greatly appreciated. Oh yeah, the system is used for 20% DVDs, 50% HD movies/sports, 20% SD TV and maybe 10% CDs.
Thanks.
