I've been reading for the last couple of weeks regarding home theater ... boy am I behind the times.
I currently have an old Technics prologic reciever ( SA-GX770 ) hooked up to a pair of bose 201's( yeah I know ), Technics center channel and surrounds. I also have a Toshiba SD1200 single disk DVD player.
OK here's the punch line . My wife and I have agreed to update our system with a budget of $750 + or - a few bucks.
I've been looking at the Onkyo HT-S767C system ($780). I've read the reviews on the 650 and 660 systems and the reviews sound great.
Here's the question ... 1). Is it worth while to add components to what I have or would the Onkyo system sound better out of the box? 2). Being that the surrounds in the Onkyo system are 8 ohms would the Bose ( also 8 ohms ) be better as front left/right channels and use the Onkyo provided fronts as surrounds ?
Ok , I've asked the first volly of questions I look forward to your very experianced opinions.
Thanks, Mike
