My wife and I are building a home in Tampa, and she's given me the den for our home theater. It's 11 x 11 and I'm having it prewired. Too small for 7.1, so, I'm sticking with 5.1. We went looking at equipment the other night, and I've done some research, but I'd appreciate some assistance from some veterans.
We're for sure going with plasma due to space concerns. I really like the new Sony 50" and found it online for ~9,400. Question: what's the downside of buying big-dollar plasmas online?
Next, the guy at the A/V store was high on the Sony receivers, but I've noticed the audiophiles around here don't mention Sony too much. The rcvr in question was the (something)2000 (I'll check the model number later.
Finally -- teh speakers I'm considering are the B&W 600s. Small room. At first I had considered wall mounting, but, perhaps I'll go stands or floor mount. Should I upgrade a notch on speakers?
Thanks for any advice.
