In my 15'6" X 17'6" livingroom I have a Mitsubishi Diamond 65" Projection along with my Sony HT in a box I got a couple yrs ago. Would like to put the Sony in the bedroom, and put something decent in my livingroom. I'm on a tight budget meaning I would like to spend under $1000.00. I was looking at HK receivers and Polk R50 speakers but have difficulties figuring out what works with what, or even what speakers are good at what prices. I would like to start right off with the receiver and 2 floor speakers, then go from there. It would mostly be for movies, but I also listen to Sirius often. Any suggestions for a poor man?
I am a fan of Denon recivers, avr-1906 $400, and Paradigm speakers,mini monitors $400. There are plenty of $400-500 subs, Hsu, velodyne , paradigm. This would be a nice start up kit and you could add a center and surrounds later.
