I am looking to build my first HT system. The room is 24'w x 16'. I sit about ten feet away from the TV. I am looking at the ONKYO TX-Sr700 or the NAD T752. I would like to get a good set of speakers but can't really afford to get all 6 at once. I would like to start with a good pair of floorstanding speakers for the front left and right. I would like a pair I can build a system around.
I would like them to sit as close to the TV as possible. I really like the B&W speakers but they are not magnetically shielded, does anyone know how close these can be placed to a TV (Toshiba 57H82).
I was also looking at getting either the Boston Acoustics VR 975 (with 2 integrated powered subs) or getting Boston Acoustics VR 950 and a separate sub. What would the differences be. I have heard the 975s and they seem to have good bass and with a total of 4 powered subs, it seems capable of feeling my room. Is it better to get a separate sub or is an integrated better?
Also, how well would this work. Is there a setting on the receiver to have it come through just 2 speakers or do I need to have them connected as the B speakers? Would it be a lot better to get a left/front/right speakers or will the 2 be fine for a start?
