New member Username: JodymacPost Number: 1 Registered: Jun-07 | Hi everyone, I'm very new to surround sound and home theater in general. My room is 17 x 12 with cathedral ceiling and hardwood floors. Have a 46" Samsung LCD that will be over top the fireplace. My budget is $2500 or less. Would definitely like to get the most bang for my buck. Thanks for your time and help. |

What is available in your area? You can check out Paradigm, B&W, Axiom or Ascend Audio. |

Silver Member Username: MccambleyBREEZY POINT, NY USA Post Number: 368 Registered: Jun-05 | You get great bang for the buck with Outlaw but there receivers only have DVI switching when it is an HDMI world. Give me a Denon 2307ci or the newer models due in July 07. |

New member Username: JodymacPost Number: 6 Registered: Jun-07 | Does anyone know anything about Anthony Gallo's A'Diva Ti 5.1 speaker package? Ran across these while surfing the net for speakers but don't know anyone who has actually listened to the system. Every review I found was excellent. They list for $1975 but I found them on audiophile liquidator for $ 1385 which would put them around my price range with a good receiver. http://www.roundsound.com/adiva-ti-system.htm?s_kwcid=a'diva%20ti%205.1|450822143&gclid=CJHe7YHk3owCFQwbgQodCBE31A |
