So . . . I've finally jumped off the Bose Speaker Train and am starting my HT over. After adding here and there and getting professional counsel and quotes . . . I am thoroughly lost.
One says stick with the current Onkyo and another says, go with a new AVR-791 Denon . . . "You won't be sorry". One says, stick with the current Bose ACM10 speaker and another says, lose the Bose and go with Episode 300's and a Pinnacle Digital Sub 100. While yet another says do something else. AHHHHH . . . HELP!!
Bottom line, we watch sports, blueray/dvds, listen to all range of music, play the Wii, watch TV. Room is our primary family room . . . 22X22 with big open room concept (Open to Kitchen and eat-in). We are redoing the entire room: cabinetry, flooring, furniture, hanging 52" Samsung over fireplace, new speakers, new audio componetry. Quotes range from $2570 to $11K for the exact same info we gave to all. Denon AVR-791 is a great machine as I have done my research. Episodes are new and less info on them . . . any thoughts? Pinnacle as Sub?
I'm not a novice but no expert as well with AV. I ran and configured the current system (Bose, TV, Cable, DVD, Wii) and all the speaker wire and would consider the challenge again. This time, however, I want it to be my last and with quality (does not need to mean over the top expensive). Will add a Logitech single remote and RF gear for componets behind doors. What I really need is your expert advice on surround sound speakers to include center channel and lft/rt frnt/back speakers. Do I / should I buy a sub to go with?
Any and all counsel is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks!
