Also, a little off topic, but which of these TV's would you guys say is the better choice? I pretty much have it narrowed down to these 2:

Sharp Aquos 46" LCD (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/prodde...gon=&langid=EN)

or

Toshiba 46" LCD (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/prodde...gon=&langid=EN)

Thanks for any help. I'm not good with this kind of stuff.
My understanding is that you need 2 - RG6 coax cables to get HD. I think they usually pull 4 cables now...2 per sattelite. I am pretty sure this is because of the dual tuner in the HD PVR's.

To the OP - There is something wrong with your setup, man. HD is massively better than SD if done right. How about giving some details about which receiver and TV you have?
