August 7th is always a special day for me. Its my wifey's birthday 
. Another event was surprisingly part of it. Yes, it was the D-Day when I cherished my home theater dream which I pursued for the last several years :yahoo:.
How it Started..
I started my HT hunt few months back doing auditions in reputed shops here in Chennai. Visited Vipul, ProFx, Croma and Reliance. It began in Feb and still I could not zero in my decision due to several reasons. Out of the shops I visited, I would rate ProFx the best. Their Service, Hospitality and range were too good. So I was inclined more towards them. My budget was around 60K.
Models I Auditioned
Denon 510BT + Polk RM6750 -> Movies were very good and the receiver was lacking little bit of power which was a little evident when compared to other amps in the same price range.
Pioneer 524 + Polk RM 6750 -> Excellent with Movie ( Demo'd The Famous Airplane Scene from Dark Knight Rises and this became my benchmark ) and was weak with Music (Loseless audio)
Yamaha 3067 + Polk TL1600 -> Excellent with movies and Music. The speaker has superb thump and clarity. The receiver does not have network capability so was a bit skeptical.
Yamaha v477 + Polk TL1600 -> To me this was the icing on the cake with performance, features and price. So closed in this with ProFx.
TL1600 Subwoofer
My Living room is 16x12 and the subwoofer is by no means weak. I had set the crossover to 120hz at the receiver and 90hz at the back of the subwoofer and the bass is just too good.
The Receiver
I am yet to explore all the features but the sound re-production is just excellent. I am a big fan of Music Mojo and the receiver has an option called "Music Video" where it beautiful decodes the youtube videos into Pro Logic II.
The Music Mojo experience in my HT was so heavenly. Drowned in the world of surround sound

More on the DTH HD and Blu Ray experience pretty soon. Keep watching this space.
