Re: Home theater Components Help!


Thanks guys for all the great Inputs!!.

As far as speakers go, I'm still trying to research the best I can get for my money. So far
Energy
(RCR -300$ for surround, RCRL-500$ FOR CENTER,RC-10-350$ FOR SIDES,RC30's or RC70 FOR FRONTS-though pricey!!-1000$ each)

and

Monitor Audio(RS6-1000$ or GS60-1500$, Both fronts)

strike me as the best sounding from the reviews I have read and demo's I have listened. Also I'm not sure about the Denon 3808 anymore, I have been reading the specs on the Onkyo 875 and its got more certification like THX2 Ultra, not sure if this will make a dramatic sound difference. I really want to utilize all the great add on's like DTSHD or even Dolby TrueHD etc, ( DTS is wayyyyy better than Dolby by the way in my opinion, the sound is superior, Not sure why dolby is still in business really!!) but I have read that the Onkyo has issues with over heating and HDMi connectivity issues.Also let me know if anyone has any Amp recommendations to go along with a high end receiver since the speakers I want to get I'm guessing would require at least 200w per channel RMS. Lastly I have been trying to solve my blue ray dilemma and read several and several threads without any clear answer on which one has the best picture and audio quality, I'm just spending allot of money on speakers, receiver, tv etc so I want to make sure I get the best possible image and sound, if that means PS3 so be it, but I find that hard to believe, kinda like saying Bose is the best audio experience!!!
