Newbie with $1500 and a wife pushing for Bose


Ok, i have been lurking only for a short time to fully understand how absolutly little I know about audio components.

I have attempted to research products via this site and others to attempt to find the best possible set up for my "allowance" as she says.

My current equipment - Sony 46" 16x9 rear projection, Sony DVP-NS715P DVD player, COMCASTS HDTV box.

My needs: Receiver, Amplifier (dont know if necesary), and Speakers

How I currenlty use my system: Almost 100% for movies/tv but want to move to music as well and remove the "boom box" CD player we have. (I know utterly sad)

My original thought was to go 100% Sony with but after some research and no real talk of sony I came here.

PLEASE HELP!!!

take your wife shopping with you. let her hear the bose and then go to some smaller audio shops that carry mid-fi and higher end stuff. if she has an ear and a love of music she should hear the difference.

I did this exact thing and ended up with Paradigm Studio reference 80's. beautiful sounding and looking(real cherry veneer wood for the wife)?

good luck!
