Hi.

This is been in the making for sometime, its now or never. Before I get married ;) :mad:. I will only get this in next 4 or 6 months. No hurry. These items will be with me for as long as they can. *touchwood*.All items need to be purchased from India. Local warranty and support for any or all items are preferred.

Need to get a proper Home theater for me now. :)

Here are the items shortlisted as of now.

Display

LCD/LED - A Good 40"
OR
Projector - Optoma HD20 ~70k. I am not going for 3D.

Now need your help in a 5.1 setup. Yea I am getting a 7.2 Receiver, but no 7.2. No Money.Even this is pushing for me. :(

My primary usage will be for movies ofc. But music is also very important to me. I hear almost all genres. Its the mood that is important for me.

My budget is 1L. If i can get a great system for less, wonderful. :)

Constraints:

Natural Lighting/Complete Darkness - Already a window is present, but it got that blind-twsiting-curtain thingy as u see in offices. In future also it will be the same. Blinds in windows. Somehow i am not a fan of closing the window from inside.
Acoustical work - Not possible.
It will always be a multipurpose room. I will be setting up my PC, HTPC, Consoles also in there. And LOTS of books.
Dimension - My current room is 4.5 x 3.5 Meters. The future one will be 5.5 x 3.5 Meters.

I dont know how much of an audition I can do. As I live in Trivandrum/Mysore in India. For now, I am in US. And i will be purchasing this from here, online if possible and deliver to my friends address.

Thanks.
 
You could also look at separates-I have a Marantz AV preamp processor, mated to a multichannel power amp. The price point for prepros is dropping and if you can bring the weight across then you could also look at a 7 channel amp .

Do some research and study reviews, Amazon, etc.
