Okay guys. I think I am almost done assembling the list of equipment I will go after. February is when I get my massive play money to finish the list. I will start buying bits and pieces in November starting with nOrh Multiamps from a guy on HD.
However, I need your help (again) deciding on a new list of recievers to get for my HT. Here are the 3 new recievers I am deciding upon.
Denon 4802 125w/Channel
Denon 3802 110w/Channel
Onkyo 898 110w/Channel
As far as I can see, they all have DPL2, DTS, THX EX. I have a hookup in Colorado to get the Denon's at COST.
Price for the 4802 is $1542 no tax
Price for the 3802 is $625 no tax
I have seen the Onkyo listed at CC for $999
Is there that much difference between the 4802 and the 3802 to warrant $900??!!
Now, before you decide, let me get you the list of equipment that I should have by March 2002 (considering I get to by everything I want)
Sony 36" XBR450 TV
Pioneer DV-444 DVD Player
Onkyo or Denon HT Reciever
nOrh ACA
nOrh CD-1
nOrh Multiamp x2
nOrh 9.0 Marble x2
nOrh 4.0 Marble x5
SVS Ultra Subwoofer x2
Crown K-1 amp for SVS Subs
Symetrix 551E Equalizer for SVS Subs
I am still deciding on DIY "Fat One" IC's or HomeGrown's "Silver Lace" IC's. I think I will only spend the extra money on IC's and speaker cables for the 2ch setup. As for the rest of the HT and the reciever, I will just use my standard leftover Monster cable stuff that I allready have.
My question is, which reciever (taking in account of the prices) is going to give me what I need? I need a kick ass HT reciever that has all the latest and greatest and will have atleast enought power to drive my nOrh 4.0's to within ear bleeding HT levels. My plan is to have the reciever's speaker wire outs for the 9.0's go in the high pass inputs of the Multiamp and the ACA preouts to the low pass input of the multiamps. This way I can keep my 2ch system seperate from my HT system.
I have an addition question as well.
Is there ANY way for me to someone use the SVS subs for the HT and the 2ch? Maybe with the use of some sort of switch or something? I really want to use them for both.
Boy, if I am able to get EVERYTHING on that list..... that will be some system. Can't wait!!! I am salivating......
