My vote must be for the Monster HTS2000, for $200, the improvement was very surprising, indeed. For improved results, try a second unit to seperate digital from the power amplifier.
Last year I compared 6 popular plcs against each other in the $500-1000. range and the VansEvers 83 Reference was the clear winner.I now own a P S Audio P300 which has an edge over plc's.
