Hey guys,
So I'm in what I'm sure is not a unique situation, but has provided me with some painful limitations.
Here are the original stipulations set by my wife:
Currently my setup is:
LG 32" TV
LG HTIB 5-disc DVD 5.1 system with factory speakers
Xbox-360
PS3
Wii
Pace dual HD PVR
Harmony 550
My limitations set by the wife/decor:
6.2" vertical space for receiver
5" horizontal space for front L/R speakers
No allowance for upgrading of center channel or rear speakers (due to size/decor)
aforementioned 5 disc DVD player
Needs set by me:
Decent front L/R speakers priced under $300 Canadian
Decent receiver with HDMI repeaters x4
Receiver that supports self optimization
My shopping list as it stands:
Onkyo TX-SR507 receiver
Onkyo DV-CP706 6-disc DVD player
Logitech Haromny PS3 adapter
So obviously I'm stuck with the speakers....
They gotta be a max of 5" wide, 12" tall...
seems as though I'm having a bit of an issue finding such animals.
what I have found so far:
Harman Kardon HKS9
KEF C1 (5.9"...and I think I can make that work)
Precision Acoustics HD4

Here are the original stipulations set by my wife:
- Brands have to match. Since we have an LG 32" TV... its all gotta be LG
- 5 disc DVD changer that will play burnt/backed up movies (home movies)
- Speakers gotta fit in with the decor
- TV stand cannot be moved/replaced
