I bought one the other day to replace the little Pioneer I had. That one is going to the museum to play the Threshing Bee DVD's we have.
The 26 has a fancy learning remote. I don't think it works very well though. I've been fooling around with it for over a week and haven't learned much. Except if you hit the DTS button while in stereo mode the sound disppears until you stumble on the direct button 
The fellow wanted 200.00 for it and so I figured it would do me for HT for many years. I played the Dire Straits DVD and noticed a big difference in sound. 100 WPC makes a big difference in reserve and headroom from 60WPC.
It's setup for DTS, THX and all that but only has 5.1 channels but I can live with that I have one question though. My surround speakers (KLH 17's) can either sit behind me or up high on the wall on the sides. Which do you think is better?
