Hi Everyone,
recently bought a pioneer vsx lx51 receiver, planning to buy 5.1 speakers (70 80k budget) was looking at the bose acoustimass 15 series. Kindly suggest...
Thanks a lot man, but are the bose really so bad?? The entire set up is in my bedroom and I wanted to avoid floorstanders.hi karan
you made a good choice going for the pioneer lx 51. i feel you should not spoil the setup buying a bose. at 80k budget you will have sufficient options. you may purchase the polk audio tsi series setup with floorstanding fronts , this will be around 60k. also the kef iq5 setup, wharfedales will fit around this budget
To be honest, i went for the pioneer as I'm extremely happy with their other gear that i've been using. I have a year and a half old 50'' PDP 507XG which is far better than most of the full hd tv's available as on date. Plus I have a lx51 blu ray player and a ps3 and watching the same bluray on both tells you that the pio is better (though marginal). I've used a denon so far and also heard the 2309. In my opinion it had better bass (again marginal) compared to the vsx lx51, but my speaker set up (JBL SCS 10) is way behind my other gear and changing it will definitely solve the problem. On the whole for movies and music, the pio was better. Also, it has ipod connectivity, though my iphone is not working as of now. But i'm sure a software update will solve the problem shortly. Priced around 60k.How much for this receiver did you pay? What all did you compare it with?
regards

hi karan,
if you really want satellites, bose may be a choice. you may also consider the infinity modulus system at around 60k, they are good. another option is the jbl cinesystem 680 at around 50k.
Thanks, any info on delhi dealer??KEF also has an award winning (what hifi) small sexy speakers 5.1 package. I think you want to wall mount all your speakers?
For bass you need a good sub. B&W has a very sexy looking sub, one that you would like to show off.
