Baht man
Grip
Back in the good ole days in Houston my setup included a "new" Yamaha RXV-1, 2 pair of Pioneer 6 way's from VN, a pair of mismatched subs and centers and surrounds located as highs.
How was I to know, fresh from the paddies?
Mismatched as the were, and no auto room eq. or SPL everything was done by ear and, to me and friends, sounded bad ass.
Now I find myself chillin' back overseas just finishing up the new house.
I picked up a 65" Sony 4K 3D display and now's the time to take off the safety and get ready to pull the trigger on some audio gear to bring this place to life.
Currently I'm searching dealers in BKK to identify what AVR's and speakers are available at a fair price as there are no dealers where I live. Import duties here are high, so I'm comparing prices here to Amazon and Crutchfield for similarities.
Plans are to fly to BKK in a week or so to do some auditioning.
Hopefully in the next few days I'll have a decent list of components put together and ask for your assistance and input on what's best for my particular situation.
Budget is somewhere near 10-15K depending on what's needed.
I'll attach a room plan and elevation drw'g. cuz I know you'll need it.
This post may be a bit premature but I'm actively engaged in this process and want to get a jump start.
Acoustics will be an issue here as houses are made from concrete block with concrete rendered walls and tile over the slab.
I'll deal with that as it arises in another topic.
Orig. plans called for a 9.2 but placing rears in this layout would dictate an elevation of about 10' and about 11' behind the MLP.
I've since dropped down to a 7.2 using front high's.
50/50 music movies.
I'm pre-wired to the locations noted on the drw'g's either under the tile or overhead with good 12ga. wire
For starters...
Given the room size, how much juice will I be needing to get this right the first time?
Thanks in advance for any and all input..
