Hi guys. I'm in the process of helping my buddy set up his Home Theater. His room is about 30x45 (TV along the long wall), I know it should be set up where the TV is on the shorter length.. but he also has a wet bar and some other things in the room that didn't make that possible.
Anyway... the equipment we've bought is
Onkyo 898
Axiom VP150 Center
Axiom M60Ti Towers
Axiom QS4 Surrounds
Axiom M1Ti Rears
SVS 20-39 pc Powered Sub
Now my question is basically this, I don't think the Onk has enough juice to affectively run everything at the volume that might be neccasary for good sound in a home theater, Can I add a 3x??? amp to power the mains and center, or even a 2x??? to power the mains and that be good enough?
I already spent quite a bit of my buddies money and he is still looking to get a Mitsu 65311 widescreen. Can I get a good amp for under 300 bucks that would serve my purpose here?
What do you guys suggest I could do? I don't want to spend much more of his money.. we have stretched his initial budget already Doen't that always happen?
Anyway.. thanks in advance!!
Jim
