My new HT set up: Onkyo 805/NHT m5/ NHT U2 sub/Better Cables Silver Serpent speaker cables & coaxial digital= sweeet. In my set-up, dialogue cannot get any better with the NHT M5 speaker.
Brother, can you spare some time for HT advice?
Hi. I've been a two-channel guy for years but am exploring an HT setup and could use some help. I'm thinking about a Samsung LCD TV (LNT 4671 or 5271), a Panasonic dmp-BD30 Blu-ray player and either an Onkyo TX-SR705 or the Denon AVR-988 receiver. I've also heard good things about the KEF KHT3005 surround speakers. Ideally, the receiver would have multi-room functionality so we could run a pair of speakers to an adjoining patio.
The gear would be placed in a 15x18 foot family room that's open to a kitchen about the same size, with hardwood flooring throughout. (I know, not an ideal configuration, but it's where we spend most of our time). We're about to start a remodel of both rooms that will allow us to hide cables and keep things nice and neat, but will also leave us running lean for a long while, so we're looking for gear with the most bang for the buck. Any opinions of the equipment I'm considering, or suggestions on better choices?
Thanks.
