home theatre
Boo asked:


I am going to venture out on boxing day looking for a home theatre system for my living room. I have been doing some research on home theaters but have not been able to find the very best brands. The only brand i refuse to buy is bose because everyone who I have talked to says they are under built and overpriced. Any Suggestions.
I will be using Blueray and i am willing to spend up to $1500.

  3. Do NOT buy a ’system’. They usually are not expandable, poor quality and when 1 part breaks you have to toss the set away and start from scratch.

    Get a good AV Receiver like the Onkyo TX-SR505. Anything by Yamaha or Denon would be a good choice as well.

    Then find a 5.1 set of speakers from a REAL speaker company - a company that only makes speakers. Polk, Klipsch, Definitive, Energy, B&W, etc. You want 5 monitor-style speakers and a self-powered subwoofer.

    You should be able to find name brand sets that work well now, but let you upgrade things later if interest and money permits.

    Search the internet to order HDMI cables and 12 ga speaker wire. The stores will push you to buy their stuff because there is 50% profit on these items.
