I also have the go ahead from the wife so I'm excited... But the pool table doesn't leave the house until the end of the month which puts a damper on the purchase rush... a good thing. Gives me some time to shop and figure things out.
I know a little about home theatres after reading quite a bit. But I would like to throw it out there to you guys because there is nothing like hands on experience. Reading goes so much.
Here's some info:
- Total budget 7k, including install (ish...she won't kill me if I go over a bit). I need everything from Projector/screen,HT receiver, speakers, subw
- Room is 14x18 with lots of windows. I'm planning to cover the windows so ambiant light will not be a problem.
- Going projector... Would like a screen size over 100" (110? 120?)
- 7.2 Sound is what I have in mind.
- Will have 2 sats coming in (Dish + Shaw Direct[Component] + BluRay
- I watch tons of hockey and lots of footbal, movies and series. All in HD. If it's not in HD, it's not worth my time!
What I would like are suggestions what to buy (and possibly where) for building the best possible system for the budget. Please don't think I'm lazy and want spoon fed answers. As written earlier, I'm a believe in hands experience and I'm a bit skeptic of the salesman/saleskid.
Thanks in advance.
