Advice new HT setup -

[aaronvasanth]

Hi Everyone ,

I'm new to Hi-Fi audio.

I have researched for more than a year about choosing best receiver and speaker for my hometheater + Music setup in my living room.
I live in an apartment with 14 x 16 Living room .

I have short-listed below components . Please advise. My choice is 80% Music and 20% Movies , so I may add dolby and surround speakers later too..

Denon X3700H - AV receiver - 8 ohms - 105W maximum - 2CH driven
Front bookshelf speakers - Polk R200 - ( Recommended Amp - 30 -200W )
Center - Polk R300 Center speaker
Surround - Polk HTS 15
Dolby atmos ceiling - Polk Audio RC 60i
Sub-Woofer - Polk HTS 12
Streaming device - Shield pro

Have you auditioned the speakers? Better do it. I found Polks fatiguing when I demoed them a couple of time.

Also consider Wharfdale, QAccoustics packages.

If it is mostly for music, I would consider buying a stereo amp and a pair of good speakers. Rega Brio is a good start. However, if you watch a lot of movies too in the future, you can go with an avr for now and add a poweramp for front speakers later on.
