Currently, I have a JBL N-Center and 4 N-24's, and a generic old Sony sub.
When I build the new area I hope to invest in some nicer speakers. The JBLs were fine though, but I dropped one once and it buzzes sometimes now
So I want something a little better and I'll salvage what I can for a regular stereo system in another room.
For looks, I hope to go for some floor speakers for the fronts. Wall speakers for the sides and a set of in-wall speakers in the celling above the sofa. Or possibly in-wall for all surrounds. I was looking around at Tweeter, I think I'd spend around 1000-1500 on speakers. I'd like to go less but the floor speakers are pricey
the Polk speakers they had all sounded good and were closer to my price range. They had some that were like $4000 each. yeeesh.
and the receiver I'd like to keep around $1000 or less if possible. I was looking at Yamaha's site and they seemed to have a few that are over $1000 that have all the bells & whistles, but if a cheaper one can do it that would be great. I don't need to plug my ipod into it or listen to satelite radio. I just want really good sound and video switching that will give me a good picture on a great big TV.
Altogether I'll have about $10,000 to spend on the HT room, including cables and furniture and everything. I will probably end up buying from Best Buy though, as I can get some discounts and cash back with my reward zone card
