Hi guys, I'm trying to build my mom a decent semi budget system for her new apartment. The size of her tv room is roughly 12x16. The main goal is to get good quality sound without breaking the bank but it should also be relatively future proof so that she can upgrade as and when she has the cash.
Mainly, it will be used for watching tv and listening to music (classical, jazz) and I'm going for clarity of sound (accurate reproduction as opposed to loud garbage). I've done a bit of leg work and I've short listed what I think is reasonable within her budget. The starred items at the ones I've mentally selected.
Receiver :
*Denon avr-x2000
Denon x1000
Front speakers:
*Polk tsi300
Center :
*Polk Cs10
Yamaha c444 2000 more
Sub:
*Audioengine s8
Yamaha sw215 2000 less
Total cost with the x2000 is about rs. 108000 (converted) and with the x1000 is rs. 95000. I'm figuring the x2000 is worth it since it does have the ability to upconvert to 4k (future proof?). Normally, I stick with onkyo for receivers but they're very expensive here (can only get a 515 for the same price as the x2000. Let me know what you guys think, would love to have a second opinion.
The prices given above are mrp, and I'm willing to look at other options. Two things are important, it has to sound good and it should last a while (speakers).
