    Looking for some advise while picking up a receiver.

    I took a look at the Onkyo you mentioned but the network capabilities along with the surround back preamp outputs of the Pioneer VSX-822-K make it my top choice so far. If I decide for another receiver is because it have the same network features, preamp outputs and is priced similar but has a...

    This is extremely kool. I'll have so much fun with this system. Much better than my previous configuration of DVD and 5.1 channel receiver. Do you think that the inexpensive Lepai LP-2020a+ will be enough for the front height speakers?

    Another question, I noticed that the receiver has surround back outputs. Will that turn it into a 7.1 system with the help of an external amplifier?

    I know they are not exactly satellites but they are not full size speakers either. Is OK I'll get it and experiment. I'll hook up the extra pair to the Memorex micro stereo system and move it to my bedroom while I use the receiver in the living room. I don't usually listen that much music in the...

    Looking for some advise while picking up a receiver.

    You're right, those are the satellites I have in mind. I also considered that center speaker but later I read that for a 6 1/2 inch front speaker you should use a 6 1/2 inch center channel speaker because 80% of the audio comes from that speaker. That center channel speaker has 3 3/4 inch...

    What about if I substitute the 8 ohm woofers with 4 ohm woofers and hook them in series to get a 8 ohm load? Is just that I'm looking for an affordable way to get a 6 1/2 in center channel.

    Nice, I feel more inclined to get the Dayton audio setup because of their affordability. I was about to ask the following question in another topic but I guess is better to post it here to see if I get an answer and save a topic: how can I hook up two Dayton audio speakers to one center channel...

    Looking for some advise while picking up a receiver.

    I'm almost convinced to get the Pioneer VSX-522-K but I'm not sure about what speakers should I get. Take into account that I'm in a tight budget and price is a crucial factor to me. I don't want to play the system extremely loud because I live in a apartment and have neighbors. I'm looking for...

    People I'm looking for a budget 3d ready 5.1 home theater. The systems that I'm considering are the following: 1) Pioneer VSX-522-K 2) RCA RT2781H 3) Pioneer HTP-071. I have a budget of around $200 and I'm willing to spend up to $400 to be divided into $200 monthly in two months. Can you give me...

    Hello from Cleveland.

    I'm really happy that I found this forum. I've been watching movies at home since the VCR days. I got my first mono VCR in 1985 at the age of 15. I've been renting movies frequently since that date. When I grew up and had my first job I got my first receiver along with a HiFi VCR. Was really...
