Hi Kapvin,
After going through the various informative threads in this forum, I arrived at few conclusions:
1) HT in a box is not a good option if we want a true audio experience
2) Build HT component by component, i.e. over a time period (if u don't have enough cash at the moment)
3) Audition, Audition,Audition... Experience the audio with your favorite music/films this is a must.
In this context I've decided first go and experience the different speakers/receivers in the market to get first hand feel. (then come back and ask specific questions/doubts)
I am building HT from scratch, at the moment I've Pioneer DV 220 KV DVD player. It will be 60:40 Movie/Music use. I've a starting budget of 50K (but I can extent if I see something really good).
Thx
