It all began a week ago when I decided it was time to get the Sony 46" LCD into it's own cabinet.
My question is not about the cabinet because I'm going to end up custom designing the cabinet.
My question is where do I begin to figure out what in the world I should be putting in the cabinet besides the LCD screen!
Apparently I've entered a very scary world of tech stuff that I just don't get.
I would love nice sound but nothing earth shaking and boomy. I just want to enhance the tv sound which I think is decent already.
I will put surround speakers in if I must but probably will do these at a later date because I will have to hire someone to do it for me. The wires have to go under the crawl space under the room.
Some details:
The room is 24 x 20 with 2-story high ceilings.
The tv is Sony XBR 1080p HDMi
I need:
Good bookshelf speakers. I'm looking at HSU research right now.
A receiver, center speaker, sub-woofer
HD DVD player and CD player.
I don't want to spend more than $1200 on the components.
When I start to read about the components I get really confused when they start talking about volts and hertz and all the abbreviations are so confusing.
I don't care how clueless I sound.
I'm just hoping someone will be able to get me started in the right direction.
Thanks
Terri
