Thanks very much, John. I too have always liked Sony stuff over the years.
Will wait till we get out to Colorado, though, before we start serious
shopping.

I've always had good luck with sony products but what I do, is I bring a CD
with me or 2, go in to a store and try them for myself to see how I like it.
I haven't bought one in 10 years, but that seemed to work out great, just
playing with the display models.
