I like the THX thing it's pretty good for starters, but the true test,
IMHO, is to watch stuff and tinker as you go as different
discs/sources/programs have different qualities but eventually you get
there.

See above ;)
TBH, the picture quality from Sky is utter crap and seems to get worse
the more garbage they transmit! Plus when you punt that onto a 6ft+
screen you *REALLY* notice the fact that its pants. :(

I think so, yes.

I can't endorse that for reasons of personal safety, I'm in enough
trouble with Phil's wife and several other SWMBOs already...including
yours prolly! :(
