Help with a Home + Computer Theatre

Guys,

I am looking for a home theater setup for a room which is about 16x10 feet dimensions. I am looking for a setup which will support my television (read as movie) requirements + playing music off my computer located in another room. My budget is Rs. 40,000/- Could you please suggest me some good equipment here. I have just managed to google for a system in my budget and this is what I came up with:
__________________________________________________ __________________
Yamaha RX-V350 with Dahlquist Orbit 5.1A HT Speaker System

RX-V350 supports Dolby Digital Matrix 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1, Dolby Pro Logic II, various DSP effects and a 5-band graphic equaliser. Orbit 5.1A speakers are sleek and pack a sizeable punch for the size. The 8-inch powered subwoofer delivers 100-watt RMS. (Approx Rs 37,000)

You can also audition the Onkyo HT–SR600 5.1 Channel A/V Surround Home Theater Receiver/Speaker Package or the new Onkyo HT-S680 6.1 version of their HT System for INR 35K.

Hi Kiran,

I don't want to sound discouraging but I would recommend you stay away from Yamaha. I made the "mistake" of buying one last year (a low-end, HTIB model) but it sounds rather bad for music (its okay for movies).

I would second the suggestion to look at Onkyo but also suggest that you look at the JBL packages which feature a Harmon/Kardon receiver with JBL speakers (jbl.rediff.com) . It may stretch your budget a bit but will serve you well in the long run.

particleman is right on the money. Yamaha's have the thinnest sounds and highs are brights. They lack weight.

Onkyos are completely opposite, tight bass but dry sound.

Best HTIBs in India around INR 50K are Harman kardon/JBL systems.
