Choice between Denon 1306 and Yamaha V465

[kulwhiz]

Hi ppl,

Firstly i should thank for all the people who have contributed to make this forum a truly knowledgeable one. This has immensely helped novices like me to at least be aware of what i want and what i am gonna buy.

For my query, I want to have a music system for my room 12*10. I am not an audiophile but whatever i listen to, prefer quality. My pref will be for music 70: movies 30. My budget is upto 30K. With this constraint i am looking for a 5.1 amp with matching 2.1 speaker which i would be upgrading later.

I have demoed HTib of Sony, LG, Denon , Panasonic (all within my budget), but apart from Denon none were impressive.

Finally have shortlisted the following options:-

1) Denon 1306 or Yamaha 465 with telome 2.1 speakers.

Can you please help me out that if i order from any of the western countries what could be the implications. Is it safe . Have seen a huge cost difference there.

Would appreciate your help.

imo you should go for a 2.0 set up. you'll have much better sound quality and will be quite good for movies too

+1 to afj.............as you room it very small( 12*10.) better go for 2.0 and buy int/stereo amp ..........should satisfied your need.

I was contemplating that .. but will be moving to a bigger room sometime down the line, so am not sure how the stereo will feel in that scenario.

how the stereo will feel in that scenario.

simple........you will not get the surround effects ................get a int amp with little bit higher power for future need.
