Ht advice 75k -90k

[SAINATH]

hi guys i have decided to go for EPSONTW 8100 PROJECTOR 3D. which is best ..

so for HT setup i have decided to for separates,, pls suggest the best
my budget 75k -90k..my opinions

my room 17x13

1) denon avr - 1913 or 1612 (pls advice whether to go for 5.1 or 7.1)
for now i will go for 5 speakers then i might upgrade for 7 speakers SO PLS ADVICE buying 7.1 is worth or not cos i heard that movies are in 5.1 format ..pls throw some light.

2) polk audio - floor stands and sub and surround

or

1) denon AVR
2) sonodyne sonus series...

pls suggest the best.....

hear and then only you can select.
polk/sonus/avant/wharfe diamond series....paradigm.etc etc
denon 1912 is good ...but you can also opt for 2113 at 43k....
so for the rest 40k...get a centre and 2 fronts.

get sub and sattatelites later..
at this budget a 5.1 is possible definitly...but step by step will give you a a solid system
7.1 is not really necceasary...

thank u prosen sir.

but clarify on avr does it depend on watts or number of speakers..?

 

[prosenjit]

on watt.but 2113 already have 7.1...if neccesary in future.
its a little powerful than 1912.
obviosly hear both...if you are completly satisfied with say 36k 1912....its cool.
but with an extra 7k.....2113 is a defintly better choice.in my opinion.you demo and then decide.

also for a 17*13 room powerful bookshelves are good.so not very neccesary to take floorstanders.as logic is if cannot use the potential of a floorstander.....better to go bookshelf
final decision depends on your fancy to floorstander,how you felt difference between floorstander and bookshelf,and off course budget.
similarly priced bookshelv will off course give better soud clarity and detail.

but demo is very very imp to know your taste.....what realy is exciting you.dont hurry.

 

[SAINATH]

Thank you ji

but again 2113 is 7.1 so is it woth buying cos as u know not many movies are 7.1..
in a 7.1 if i play 5.1 movies will it make difference i.e, suppose i upgrade with 7 speakers but play a 5.1 movie will it be better or not...

thank u in advance

 

[prosenjit]

no i suggested 2113 for extra power per channel....not for 7.1 feuture...it is little powerful than 1912.
but as i said..if you are completly happy with 1912 demo..get that.no need of 2113

thank u prosenjit
also can u advice on

acoustics / sound proofing in chennai ..

if so how much do they charge per sq ft ..
my room -16.5ft lenght 12.5 width 12ft height
or any easy way for sound proof

 

[prosenjit]

sorry no idea about chennai proffesional costs.
diy idea is.
a closed room.
sofas.
carpets.
heavy curtains
good placements of speakers and sub.height wise and position wise.
iff possible bookshelves with books.talking about real bookshelves...not bookshelf speakers...
