Home Theater Gifts For Dad

Owning a home theater is a very expensive proposition. Just ask my wife every time I propose a new addition (or substitution, as the case may be). So when father’s day comes around, a list for HT nuts is really only handy if you’re a little bit financially endowed. But that didn’t stop Robert Silva over at About.com from putting together such a list. It’s full of items like DVD players and subwoofers.
Which got me thinking. If Warren Buffet were my father and he asked me what one HT gift I would like for father’s day, what would it be?
It was a tough choice. I waffled between Anthem’s D2 pre/pro, and Sony’s Ruby SXRD projector. But since this was theoretical waffling anyway, it didn’t cause me too much stress. But I finally decided on the projector. I have a 57″ HDTV already, but I’ve been missing a world-class display ever since I moved my 35″ CRT out of my family room to make room for an HDTV.
What would your choice be? I guess you can reply even if you’re not a father!

I’d have to put in another vote for that projector, myself. That’s my big lack at the moment. I’m short of high-def video sources too, but without the killer display, there’s no incentive to acquire any.
