Hello all!
I am trying to set up a home theatre system in my basement and my current setup is.....invisible. I have been reading this site since June and trying to learn as much as I can. Currently I am borrowing a friends shoddy RCA from the late 80's. Here is the system I plan to setup followed by a question...
32" Sony Wega HDTV
JBL S CenterII
JBL S38's X 4 (Front R&L, Back R & L)
Jbl PB12 subwoofer
???????Receiver
I have been trying to work out in my mind which receiver I should go with and am not sure where to start. I have been looking at the Yamaha 5490 because of the technology and individual amps... I will only be running a 5.1 surround system for a while so I don't know if this might be overkill. I like the way this model sounds and all of the different options that it has. Any feedback?
I am willing to spend between 500-650 on the receiver.
(One more thing.... any criticism about the tv or speakers)
What are some equivalent receivers that I should look into?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
