Hi Guyz,
I am a new addition to this fantastic forum on hifi audio system.
Wish you all a merry Christmas & happy new year first.
I have gone thru lots of discussion points on this forum & this is my first post here.
I am trying to build my 1st HT set up & would need you valuable inputs to achieve this
My budget is around 70-75 K.
My preferences are 70% music & 30% movies.
I have a Samsung 32' LCD TV.
After going thru lots of threads, it seems that Marantz or Denon will be a good choice for me. However, I have called several stores in Mumbai & will go for a demo to decide.
Also, I am thinking that if I don't get a good combination, can I get a good AV receiver & 2 floor standing towers so that later on I can gradually build up the full HT 5.1 system.
Here, I need some advice-
1- Is Marantz or Denon will be the best option for my requirements or I should try some other options also?
2- If yes, ideally, what speakers I should look for ? Wharfedale or Mordaunt Short or any others?
3. I've seen a ad for Marantz SR 5005 AV Receiver in India's audio video home theatre and hi-fi shopping mart at 35 K which looks to be an attractive price.
Is this website/price/product reliable?
4. In the same site, Wharfedale DIAMOND 10.4 & Wharfedale Obsidian 600 HT Package at 35 / 36 K? How are these speakers? Are they compatible with the Marantz SR 5005?
Will highly appreciate your kind feedback on these points.
Thanks
Hector
