In need of a new Sound System with some Restrictions

[Beta Man]

Maybe a large area rug, over the existing carpet..... you said "downstairs" does that mean "basement" ??? that would be a good way to have the wired concealed, so nobody trips on them etc. Without seing the room, it's hard to tell.... sometimes you can push them under baseboard etc......


Many ways to do it......

I might get some heat for this, but if this is a secondary system, you might just want to stick with the Bose, and keep saving the cash to upgrade right the first time...... For $1,000 you'll end up trying to cut a lot of corners, and that's an awfully nice Television.
