Thanks for the response. I am waiting for price list from few more places. ProFX does not have stock for Denon X1600H and they are not expecting it be available before end of June. Will wait for price list from other places and will finalize it.
From where did u buy denon 1600h, even I am planning to buy the same but due to high prices quoted by many sellers so couldn't book any.. I too located in Bangalore
you can contact The Home Cinema, DNI for this model. ProFX does not have the stock, it is expected to come by June end.
Thanks for the response. I saw somewhere online about this being a CCA wire which is lower quality compared to a pure copper one. Does it make any difference? I know my setup is low power one.

Ordered both 14 guage cable as well as subwoofer cable you suggested. ProFX team would help with setup the speakers sometime later after lockdown. For now they have told me to use 2.1 setup with this amazon basics cable. Subwoofer cable wont need replacement as per my understanding.14 Guage is fine.
You can buy thicker if you want (12 guage), but in my view , not required.

Please share photos of your setupHi All,
I have finally completed my initial planned setup for 5.1 channel configuration. The speakers are arranged in adhoc manner currently and I do not have a proper positioning for center channel due to space limitation, but overall the speakers are connected and working.
I ran Audyssey setup assistant and calibrated all speakers, it sounds great and more natural with all channels sounding well together.
Now I will start looking into other aspects of this mini project, i.e., a platform where I can place my receiver and center speaker as my TV unit cabinet is not capable of accommodating that. But that is more of a leisure task than an urgent requirement.
I would like to thank everyone you provided their valuable suggestions in completing one of my wish list items.
I will be back with some queries around settings and other usage related queries.
Thanks a lot to all again.
Hi, Best option today is to bring it in, especially since you have a good friend who is willing.
Hi OP,
Here is an image from initial setup. Arrangement has changed a bit recently with workarounds, center channel has gone behind TV unit, placed just above the TV screen. Receiver has been moved to location where subwoofer was kept and subwoofer has been moved in front of the TV cabinet.
I have ordered another TV unit cabinet with provisions to place the receiver and center speaker, will rearrange the subwoofer(move it closer to wall) after that product is received.
Many thanks!! Even a sealed box for 500 USD normally doesn't attract too much attention since the customs duty free limit is 50K now. Of course a troublesome or bribe seeking customs guy can evaluate it not on its paid price but on Indian MRP and make some noise. 90% of my gadget setup in my house including Pioneer Andrew Jones Tall speakers, Side speakers, Polk PSW 10 sub Woofer, Pioneer 1020K receiver.....etc have been bought from US. Even my 800 dollar DJI Mavic Pro drone didn't face any hassles. Of course its all a matter of luck.
