I'm upgrading from my Onkyo H.T.I.A.B. that I bought almost a decade ago and I was just wondering if anyone can give me some tips/input about the equipment I'm looking at. My friend can get me a deal on the Sony STR-DG910 for about $300. I know people here are way above those standards, but I've heard it's a good AVR and the specs seem pretty good too.
The problem I'm having is finding speakers. I don't know much about speakers, but I know I don't want to spend $150 per speaker. This is a 7.1 AVR so $1,000 is a little much for speakers in my apartment. Atleast for now. I am looking at a few Sony speakers. Center: SS-CN5000 or SS-CR3000 (which would take care of the surround left/right. and Left/Right: SS-BB1000
If anyone can give me any insight into anything listed, or just make other recommendations. I'm looking for something that is reliable, because my Onkyo right now, the sub has gone out. And the surround rears seems to be acting up.
Also, I've configured each channel, and there are a lot of times I need to turn up/down the volume depending on what's going on in the movie. Is there any kind of suggestions anyone can make so I don't have to do that so much?
Thanks a lot,
Jarrod
