Ive read and re-read till my eyes have glazed over and things have begun to make less sense.
I have an insignia IS-HTIB102731 home theater system. Bought it four years ago and up till recently, it is fine, sounds pretty good for what I paid. The dvd/cd's are starting to freeze/resume play or not be recognized by the system at all "loading" "no disc" results are common, so its time to replace it.
With all the options available out there, I figure Ill get input from those into home electronics.
I generally use the home theater in stereo mode, so a 2.1 home theater would work fine for me.
I would really like a system with a sub that can kick hard with some clean bass, not a real fan of boomy, Id rather get a punch in the chest.
Id like a system that has some sort of manual equalizer, not only preset options.
I need something that has RCA input.
I need something that can put a clean picture on my screen when I play dvd's.
I dont need am/fm
I would really like something under $200. It can be refurbished or good used condition.
I would be open to buy a seperate satellite speakers/sub/receiver/dvd player vs buying an HTIB.
Id like input on sources for reasonably priced home electronics. ebay and amazon dont seem to be that place.
The insignia speakers I have are 80w max 4ohm sattelites and 100w max 3ohm passive subwoofer. If I could reuse those with pieced together components, that would be fine, if not, then Im sure I could give this crap to someone.
Im not someone that will want to upgrade in five years, unless what I have is broken. I want something that will sound good but good is good enough, I wont be wishing I had bigger and better in six months. If the dvd/cd player was working ok on the insignia now, I would not be here but its not, and Im here, so I try and seek something with a clean sound with some low end punch and a good dvd player. I could go buy a cheap dvd player, run it to the faulty dvd receiver and im sure it would fit my needs well but then theres just another component stacked on another component, making a big old mess of ugly. Id rather just have everything in a nice tight package, since im in the spending mood, might as well see if I can find something better at a good price, right?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
