1st post and I hope it is in the right place.
I'm currently running a Sony Wega TV, and have the Sony Speakers Towers. I'm hoping to upgrade to a better sounding system, but I'm not sure on how to proceed. I don't listen to music too much, and the room it is going in has cathedral ceilings.
I was thinking HTiB, because of I don't listen to alot of music, but will I be making a mistake when I want to upgrade to HD TV (in a year or so). Will a HTiB sound decent in an open room with cathedral ceilings.
If I do go with a better receiver, what features should I look for. With an odd shaped room, should it contain speaker setting device like YAPO. Knowing I'll be going HD is there a minimum number of inputs or any type that is a must have.
The next step Speakers, should I go with 6.1 in a box from a reputable maker, Should I go with 4-5 decent bookshelves, a good center and good sub? Or start with 2 Good floor, and a center.
My budget is around 1k. (I'm not really looking for brands just advice on how to start)
