Hello Everyone,
I have a few questions for ya. I am about to start building a home theater system. I plan to build all of my speakers myself, as I am an experienced woodworker. I dont have the money to purchase everything now so I plan on building the system up over the next few months. I already have a 55" mitsubishi hdtv and a toshiba sd-1600 dvd player. After doing some research on this board I have decided that I would like to start by building a set of Adire 281's for the front mains. My question is, what reciever recomendations would you make in the $400 range. Also, it would seem that a reciever's amp would not be powerfull enough to optimally power the 281s. Is this assumption correct? And if that is the case, what are some recomendations you would make for amplification. Would it be best to get a 2 channel amp exclusivly for the 281s or would it be best to use some forward thinking and purchase a 4 or 5 channel amp that could handle the surrounds and center as well in the future? Any comments and/or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
