Joe, you've made a very pertinent point about the shills over on the AVS site.

The biggest problem with a site like the AVS forum is that they are heavily bannered and woe befall the poor sap who crosses their bottom line by criticizing a sponsor. When criticism IS allowed for the 'appearance' of fairness, it's usually heavily moderated, restricted in scope, limited to short duration and then locked down so that critical posts will scroll off before the manufacturer gets upset (usually long before production models actually hit the market). If you see an OPPO banner over there, and I'm pretty sure that there is one, then treat the AVS site like live army ordinance. IOW, if you pull the criticism 'pin' in an OPPO thread then mister hand-grenade will no longer be your friend! ;O)
