Hello all! I have been reading these forums today and I must say, there are a lot of extremely knowledgeable people here! So, I thought this would be a perfect place to reach out for some thoughts and suggestions on my first HTS.
Overview: I am looking for something on the mid-range as far as budgets go - about $4000 excluding television. I imagine it will be used for movies and TV 90% and music 10% of the time.
Room layout: HT area will be for my finished (carpeted, drywall and wood bookcases) part of the basement. The room is about 20' deep from TV wall to back wall. TV wall is 14.5' wide. Facing the TV wall there is a glass doorway to the sit out to the left and wall on the right. The plan is for 3+1+1+1+1 recliner couch with a small bar counter along the back wall.
Considering:
Front Tower Speakers -JBL Studio 290 3-way Dual 8" Floorstanding Loudspeaker
Center Speaker - JBL Studio 235C Dual 2.5-way 6.5" Center Channel Loudspeaker
Surround Speaker - JBL Arena 120 2-way 5-1/2" (140mm) Bookshelf / Surround Loudspeakers
Atmos Speakers - Boston Acoustic HSi 475 2-Way 5-1/4" LCR In-Wall Speaker
Subwoofer - JBL ES 250PW
AV receiver - Denon AVR-X2400H 7.2 Channel Full 4K Ultra HD A/V Receiver with Bluetooth and WIFI
With this 5.1.2 set-up (without wires) I am right around $3950$ with tax. If there is a compelling reason why something in this set-up doesn't work, or could be improved. I am open to spending a little more to make it better. the reason to go with this is that JBL is the only Home Theater Designer in my city with any experience in making an HT.
Questions:
Overall thoughts on this combination?
Anything you would change?
Thanks in advance for any advice, suggestions, comments you may have to offer!
Cheers,
Danish.
