Home Theater / Hifi Stereo --- Under $2,000


I'm building a theater/stereo system basically from the ground up. The overall goal being a home theater setup with a surround receiver as the "Hub" with HDMI inputs and all, BUT with the ability to be a HiFi stereo system when need be.

As of Now I have all I own is a Marantz NR1504
