I don't know where to start.
I somehow got this itch. Actually I am not a music buff.
But some how got this itch to buy HT. So started hunting with 10-15k price range . Later I found what I get with my budget.

Went for Onkyo 3400, Yamaha 196 and Denon 1612 auditions.

Yamaha is descent enough. But, Is it worth at 20k?

Impressed with Denon + FS and planning to buy by this year end.

As you expect this itch is growing day by day.

First I am planning to buy a pair of Speakers till I buy Denon.

Can I connect speaker to my

Samsung LCD TV+
Hathway STB(with red,yellow,white o/p wires)+
philips dvd player(with red,yellow,white o/p wires)?

Do I need to buy subwoofer along with it?

If yes please suggest few options so that I can ask for demo. Room is mid size. Total budget for 5.1 setup is around 25k.

If possible please suggest 2.1 setup for my frnd for strict < 10k budget.

Thanks for all for building such g8 forum. I wish you good luck.

I have purchased F & D 900U speakers. Sound is decent. I haven't purchased any amplifier. For mentioned setup I can play movies though my laptop and connected to TV though HDMI cable. I connected speakers to the TV unit. I am getting decent enough sound effect though you cann't compare with proper setup.
