I have a room that's about 12'x10' or so in my apartment and I'd like to add a small HT to it. I was thinking about either going with a decent 5.1 setup, or spending the same amount (trying to keep it under $500 for the speaker in either setup) on a set of floor-standing speakers and maybe adding a sub later on.
Would a 5.1 setup be too much for such a small room? And if I went in the 2.1 direction, would I be better off with some floor-standing speakers or a couple of bookshelf speakers? I'm sure the neighbors will love me either way, but any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.
