Yeah ... I was talking to your missus just the other day and she mentioned
that.

Yeek! It's bad enough through my DSP-A1 + Rotel THX Power Amps! I do have
mine connected via a digital audio feed which is a shitload better than the
analogue feeds though. (Am I allowed to say shitload?)

I only got it to evaluate whether it was worth getting an IDTV - and I
think
once the TV companies have got their act sorted out and $ky are
transmitting
the ITV channels then that's what I'll be getting installed. It's a sad
thing to say but even if I were to use a hookey card to get the pay
channels
it's still crappy enough quality that I wouldn't use it in my main system.
(OK for piping round the house to bedroom TVs though.)
