Hi,
My first post in this forum. Did my initial research but didnt find answers to my specific doubts and hence putting my first post.
I have a Samsung 32" LCD 720p, Yamaha Rx-v459, a Sony DVD player and a Ipod Nano.
I currently have a set of custom made speakers which are good but cannot handle the power that the amp gives.
I watch movies 70% and hear music 30% of the time.
Movies would be action/drama/sci fi (Gladiator,lord of the rings) and music would be varied from Hindi General to Dire straits and u2.
I would like to buy first front tower speakers and subs and then go for the rear surround so I can switch from music to movie mode.
Music source is typically ipod or CD's. Movie source is DVD.
Current budget would be around 30k. Looking at changing the source later for movies. Also, is it simpler to just buy a 5.1 speaker set right now. My room is 18*12 living room and can accomodate tower speakers but may have difficulty with bookshelves in the front (due to sofas).
I have tried the polk audio montor series 50/60 and they were the ones I was looking at, but post this site, I have my doubts.
Any advice on any parts of the setup would be most welcome?
