Hi All
Im a newbie here
Been reading the informative posts by seniors here and would like your advice in making my first AV setup
Here are my specs :
1. Room Size is 16' X 10' - 160 sq.ft.
2. Viewing distance would be 9 ft
3. Listening distance may vary from 9 ft to 14 ft depending on the placement
4. Movies - 40% and Music - 60%
5. Music genre - Easy Listening, Rock, instrumental and popular hindi music
6. Like more high's than large thumpy bass, not shrill treble though
7. Speakers need to be small and wall mounted as less space on floor
Currently have got a Samsung 46 LED, TATA Sky Plus, PS3 and Samsung HD860 DVD Player.
Have auditioned the following :
1. Harmon Kardon AVR 255 with Sequence Sonata front and centre speakers, PSB Surround & Definitive Pro Sub 800. price - 129k
2. Marantz AVR - SR8003 with Mirage Nanoset HGB 5.1 - The dealer din have 4003 for audition and has suggested 4003 with mirage combo. price - 82k
Would like to audition the Q accoustic 1010i and a matchin avr that would go with it
My queries are :
1. In a budget of 40 - 50 k what would be a good avr ? Is marantz avr a good option as i havent read a lot about it on the forums ? How about NAD avr ?
2. In compact speakers which dont look out of place in small rooms, is mirage nanoset a good option, without sacrificing the sound ? Last months AV Max carried a very positive review of the nanosat
3. What should be the cables i would be buyin ? while doing the interiors, i have put DAC speaker cables. what interconnects would help me get the best performance in my setup ? is a budget of 10-12k gud enuf for cables n interconnects ?
TO begin with, i would be happy to get feedback from the gurus here on these and be on way to make my dream avr setup
Thanks in advance people
Warm Regards
