Start with a RPTV at around $2,000. Have 3 20 amp circuts installed to run it all off of, you should be able to find one of many great pre/pros right here on audiogon used for $1,500/$2,000. You should also be able to pick up a good multichannel amp here on audiogon for $1,500/$2,500, cost will depend on room size and speakers used in your system. You can find 5 speakers and a sub that will more than do the job for around $2,500, this should leave you enough for a F.T. audio passive pre for two channel and a good Dvd player of your choice. I would not worry about cables of very high quality until you get set up and are ready to fine tune. I can not offer better advice as to brand models with out more info on your tastes and planned room.
Audiofile HT system for $10K
I'm about to start a renovation of my house, and finally will have the chance to put in a dedicated home theater room.
I was wondering if anyone has some advice for the best way to put together a system that would come in around 10k (including the video).
For me the sound is the most important and I will probably use the system in 2 channels to listen as much as I will watch movies and television.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
