I want to get a TV and a decent pair of stereo speakers for my apartment next year, and I was wondering if people here had some advice. I don't necessarily care about surround sound, but I do want a receiver that accepts HDMI input from an Apple TV, XBox and Macbook Pro and has clean output to...

I bought my Altec Lansing IM716 headphones a couple years ago and they have gotten pretty run down.

I guess this is the billionth post here, but I havent really found the answer to this on here after reading some reviews and searching through some threads. Before I came to this site, i was pretty excited about getting a nice new pair of Shure e2cs. They seemed to be recommended in other...
