You guys must get sick of this question, but I'm taking my first step into home theater and I would like your opinions b/c this is the best board around!
I have $1000 US to spend on an A/V receiver and home theater speaker setup. My requirements are the following:
>System will be in a small room, so lots of power isn't a real issue
>System will play 50% music, 50% movies
>I have a turntable, so phono-in is highly desired, although there are obviously ways to get around that
>I would like A/B switching to drive a pair of outdoor speakers on my deck
>I have a progressive scan DVD player, and plan to upgrade to HDTV in the next year or so.
>I would be more than satisfied with a 5.1 setup
My initial leanings are toward the Denon 1804. I don't see many people post who listen to a lot of music on their home theater systems, so my biggest question is what speakers to buy. I'm no audiophile, but I know what good sound is like and I'm afraid the HT in a box won't cut it, even though my budget is closer to that option.
Come through for me guys!
