HT recomendations, pls

[Buffalo MX]

Well I just order the Panny BD35 + 4 BRs from amazon and my budget for a 24p TV is gone (after some other purchases )

so I have almost 1000 usd for a HT set, looking to have DTS HD amd TrueHD

I apprecite your sugestions!!

Thanks in advance

$1,000! Great budget, great budget. No HTiBs here!

First!

Receiver!

Onkyo 606 or Sony STR-DG820: $350

5.0 Speakers!

Fluance AV-HT: $200 (5.0 - complete wonderful set, Big Daddy recommends em)
Polk RM- Series: $250 (Complete 5.1 - but small satellites)

(L/R/C) Polk Monitor 50 + CS1: $400

Subwoofer!

None other than the beautiful bass behemoth of the eD A2-300 @ $350.

Whats your room size? Apartment/house? Any particular preference for towers/bookies/satellites?

Try to build a solid front three, subwoofer, and receiver; and leave the surrounds for last. Heck, if it was me, I'd get a Paradigm Monitor line across the front three and leave the receiver for later...planning on any upgrading in the future?

lol - No big boxes? The wife, the girlfriend getting in their two cents? The Fluance and eD are as aesthetically challenged as they get, but there is no better sound for the money than those two. Do you really want to compromise because of AESTHETICS?!?!

Satellites and Bookies it is, with some cute little sub, too!

These guys have some good speaker packages like this but you will have to save up for a receiver.http://www.sounddistributors.com/buy...heater+Systems

I knew it too many options and very big "boxes"

Oye, for $1,000; you're gonna get boxes. Just like the Buffalo offense does because Edwards is scared to throw deep,

We are talking about football now?

[allstar780]

for speakers you could try the Klipsch cinema 6 or cinema 8 packages (if you can find them on sale... they're on at my work for $399 and $699 respectively, without a sub, and i'm sure theres an online price that can beat that)

they're nice and small, wall or roof mountable satellites that can also sit neatly on a shelf or stand

mmhh seems that I need to work wife with new dinning room and some paint, in order to have approval for this "mounster set"

But "Big BOXES" sound the BEST!!!

Tell you what, you buy the Fluance speaker set and then go to your local Circuit City or Best Buy and get the Monitor 60's just to see how it compares. You can get the Monitor 60's significantly cheaper online than in stores but in stores, you can bring it home to see how you like it, return it, and buy them cheaper online. Unless you like the Fluance system more which is totally possible. I want to get an idea of what they even sound like.
