Hey Guys,
So, we are setting up a brand new system in our family room, but know very little about home theater setups. I've started to look around for a mid-level receiver, and found the Denon AVR-1912. Our set up will be for only 1 room, 2 Floor Standing speakers to start. Later on I'll setup a center speaker, sub, and 2x rear speakers. We don't care for 3D, so its not a factor. I do like the AirPlay, and could go either via powerline or wireless, either way.
My big question is, without the need for 2 zones or 3D passthrough, is there much incentive for the newer AVR 1913 model?
The room is about 20 feet long, about 15 feet wide with a ceiling of roughly 10 (sorry I'm not there at the moment to measure), and it opens up to the rest of the house.
Is there any suggestions for or against the Denon avr-1912? Is it too old or thoroughly tested? Are the other suggested similar receivers you guys may suggest?
While I'm at it, any good ideas on floor standing speakers? Polk Monitor? Klipsch?
Let me know what you guys think?
Thanks very much in advance,
