First, thanks to all responsible for this fantastic resource.
My "media room" is difficult: 12x15, but with full windows along one of the 12' wall and a full-size closet opposite; one 15' wall is fully available, for opposite are windows and french doors. Cabling thru walls and ceiling is not possible. So, I think a surround sound speaker system won't work.
My first choice in HDTVs is the 42" commercial Panasonic plasma. I nned an a/v receiver and speakers, and I've got up to $1000 to spend on both. Instead of the 5.1 (or 6 or 7) set up, I'm considering one of those speakers, like the Polk "SurroundBar" or the Boston Acoustics P400: one speaker, plus a sub, for the total package. Another alternative is wireless for the sats. But I have no idea what these sound like, and no local store carries them; hence, this post.
Any info and suggestions would be most appreciated. And a Happy New Year to all!
