Protection for my gear : i am located at kolkata and have wbse connection, where electrical power fluctuation happens some times, have gone through earlier posts of many FM and understand that servo based stab or an online ups will be best solution. my front stage has small space around 70 inches in that i have to accommodate a cabinet for electronic, one Sub e12f , tv stand and two tower , so i have very less foot print for keeping this stab or online ups. I had check online ups will take much space coz it will come with separate battery rack so canceled it, now reg stab , had call vertex but they will not do business at kolkata , restricted to south India only.
let me know a similar solution which i can buy at kolkata 2 kva is enough for me.
also spoken to sen and pandit at kolkata they has a model but it 15x15 too big , vertex was only 9 inch width which will be perfect for me but cant help they do not do business here. So please help which servo or some other solution i can go for to solve this problem.

Speaker wire: my room size is (WxHxL) 10x9x12, my vendor who is assisting me with all the HT equipments (auditro), told he has 16 awg cable, i find in forums 14 AWG is better, let me know should i go with 16 awg or 14 awg.

Is it a CESC connection? If it is, you should not worry much. But remember to spend some cash on the earthing .. I've done so since a lot of electrical gears are at stake! If it is WBSEB, then you should get some protection and you have done your research well! Your switch board should not have issues in power supply.
That's a great system you have assembled. You can ask Mr. Mittal to get the plugs on a later date but I would not recommend spending 8k on plugs right away.
So you have taken the plunge finally!!Update : after almost 10 months i had placed the order last Friday for 5.1.2 setup.

Not sure about streaming but get a cheap Blu-ray player till you can find a way to buy shield. Sony bdp 1500 should be available within 6k and it will play atmos from usb. Only draw back is it won’t play dolby digital plus, tru HD and atmos in mkv format but will support atmos in m2ts format. The blu ray player will also have an inbuilt YouTube and Netflix appAkshay ji (auditro) help me with all the equipments..I got 10% off over the mrp on speakers and 20% on NAD. Mrp you will get at auditro websites (auditro.systems)
Guys can you please suggest me something alternative of nvidia shield..not finding that any where, currently I do not have anything which will help me to play or stream with atoms.
Literary i will remain in 5.1 until I get something. So please help.
Thanks

It will play downloaded files atmos but you should download it in m2ts format. If I download the remux files which will be in mkv format it won’tThank you mate, I am looking for a solution which will do Netflix and play downloaded file in Atmos.
My budget is 10 to 15 k for now.
if you want to suggest some please do, for a good online UPS/ servo stab which i can find in kolkata.
Another hurdle, I have sony KD43x8300d Android 4k tv, but it doesn't has an earc port, only arc is there, so though I get Netflix on it but I think it will not send the Atmos to avr and it will not work.
Should I buy a dvd player like sony UDP x700 to get Dolby Atmos by dvd or online streaming, hence it supports Dolby Atmos and vision and it also has streaming capabilities..or any other solution, I will go for.. please suggest best way out for this bummer ... something which I can get in india.
I have recently bought an APC 1.1kVa (Model no. BX1100C-IN ) regular pc ups for my 2.1 setup plus Integrated amp. Till date it's working fine. Though read here in diffrent threads regarding modified square wave ac output of online ups and negative effects of it on different components . I am using this ups solely to prevent any damage due to sudden outage or voltage flactuatuation and to get ample time to safely shut down all my equipments.I am in the same boat as you are and online UPS I know APC is great but costly and there are some online threads on this forum on various other brand. The point being all such devices that depends heavily on clock like DAC, CD Player or even your AVR that has in built DAC and you are utilizing it, add to that pre amp to a small extend will benefit in SQ if you isolate them from other devices that use SMPS based power like Gaming Consoles, Set Top Box, even TV, Router, etc. Yes the other benefit of UPS is to guard against sudden power cuts or fluctuations.
