HT below, 30k, for listening Music, FM and MP3

[jagannathajeppu]

Hi, Can you tell what could be the best 5.1 HT.
My prime use is for listening FM radio, Music through USB.
My budget is 30k.
Presently I am using Yamaha RX-v740 with jamo Tower speakers and 200w SW.
Watching movie is uncomparable, but I donot get the same richness while listening FM radio.
Want a parallel music system exclusively for FM Radio and MP3.
What is having in mind is Denon DHT-1312, Onkyo HT-s3500 and and and
I do not rule out Sony BDV e3200.
Pls suggest.
Is anyway i can improve radio performance of Yamaha RX -v740 ?

If you wish this second setup only for music then why look for again a HT setup?
Instead go with a stereo amplifier and bookshelf speakers, this will serve you better in every respect when it comes to music.

Entry level HT setups the kinds you mentioned will fail for music and you will experience similar dissatisfaction with music.

Look for a Norge amplifier and bookshelf speakers. There are some used options in the forum as well, an old Marantz 5004 or 6004 will serve your purpose very nicely.

Speaker choices are plentiful, from Dali, Wharfedale, Tannoy and more, all have some offerings in 20K range. Bangalore has plenty of options around, visit a few places, listen and decide.
