Need Expert Advice For New Home Theatre

[Mehru Mansukhani]

I have recently purchase 3 nos "Samsung 3D Smart" 46" TVs. One is for my private den (which is quite small--only about 140 sq/ft area). I want to set up a 5,1 theatre system in this area, which is which is already (earlier) set up with concealed (in the wall) Monster cables & 2 JBL Pro III wall mounted speakers. Can you help me select the other components that I will need for a decent mid range 5.1 theatre system. Whilst budget is not a constraint, I want "value for money" & am willing to spend upto 1 lac (or more if necessary). For the time being I am considering a Marantz 5500 or NAD (about 100 RMS p/c). I would like to have a 3D Blue Ray (& don't have a clue what to buy). Also 3.1 speakers (since I have two JBL's fitted rear speakers as mentioned above). Please help me select (I am a novice on this subject). Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
A blu ray player is okay but i suggest go in for a digital content player i.e WD TV LIve / WD TV Live PLus to increase the scope of stuff you can play with full functionality.
I suggest go in for a JBL Escape Three minus the rear surrounds (u said u hav them already) this should cost u 1,30,000 or so.
I own a Marantz SR5001 with JBL E90 floorstanders....... thats also a gud combo, though i was told Klipsch pair better with Marantz any day specially if you are gonna have a sub.
SO i suggest Klipsch RF62 II along with the marantz SR5005 should get a good deal. with this dont worry about the surround as the reciever will nicely take care of it.

cheers
