QUOTE(Hikaru @ Mar 24 2013, 12:42 PM) Hi, Onkyo TX NR 616 = RM2,319.13Sorry - quite new to all this. Interested in getting a home theater system for living room. Budget would be anywhere between RM12k-RM16k, although I care about value (Good performance for value of money) Looked online but it's kinda hard to start, especially not knowing Malaysian market and are some parts available. But for what it's worth... Onkyo TX-NR616 looked like a decent AVR. DefinitiveTechnology ProCinema 800 looks good..? Don't know if it's available locally though. Anyone with any recommendations? You can scratch off my research so far.. as I'm sure all you sifus here will have much better idea as to what is worth buying for the price range. Thanks! P.S. I know this topic is to show off your own system - but I really have no idea where else to post. Cracking my head here... Onkyo7.1 SKS-HT540 = RM1,560.49(You can get another sub later if necessary) Total = RM3879.62 plus shipping right on your doorstep (+25% tax if you're unlucky) = so all less than RM5000 Now you can either give me that balance RM11000 from your maximum budget for the advice or you can upgrade a lot of things listed on your signature that need updated like i7 computer, Iphone 5, Ipad 3 |

QUOTE(geforce1999 @ Apr 4 2013, 08:57 PM) hahaha, if you lying on the bed to watch tv in front of you a lot then you know how painful it is. I used to watch TV where my matress was on the the floor directly, this glasses really served the purpose well. Now I no longer need to use it to watch TV but rather watch magazine before bed time This on the floor picture is like so funny » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(BrokenOne @ May 13 2013, 02:28 PM) thanks! Im using a projector btw ! I love your setup, instead of trying so hard and spending so much making mini cinema with dedicated HT room that will end up rarely utilized, this one is more relax in family area where friends and family can just enjoy not just movie but travel video, wedding video, baby slide show etc on that huge screen with multichannel sounds.You're such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing. This post has been edited by chokia: May 16 2013, 10:19 AM |

QUOTE(klimal @ Nov 26 2013, 10:06 AM) When I bought it 2 years ago, those specs were not listed then. that monoprice has ton of HDMI cables and make people confuse. Some even monodirection (redmere) and some has equalizer, high speed, ethernet and without etc, when i thought all HDMI version 1.4 can do all these including 3D. Still, no problems with transmission. My Dune set to output 1080p and the Denon AVR's HDMI signal info when in operation, also shows 1080p. I can even transmit 4K signal upscaled from my computer to the TV with existing HDMI cable.  click for original reso - cropped 3840 × 2160 to 3840 x 1884 for posting purpose So im saying do we even need redmere or even HDMI 2.0 to be future proof? (for a cable?) |

QUOTE(ben3003 @ Nov 26 2013, 12:01 PM) problem is i stay in east msia, shipping those used set (mostly are in the west) are expensive, and most of them doesnt ship.. that's why i am limited to those option. What's wrong with ebay? youll get cheaper and new product right on your doorstep. All you have to do is find the model you like, read all review and forum concerning the unit, go to ebay, search and sort the lowest price + shipping and pay. Easy.I used to think that separate AVR and speaker are better too, only to find out that certain HITB is using similar receiver rebranded with different name and sold separately. Case-in-point: my old HITB Onkyo HTS5300 is using SR508 receiver that people buy separately rebranded to HT580. So if they're the same why the former is better? |

QUOTE(ben3003 @ Nov 26 2013, 02:34 PM) So u mean ship all the way from outside malaysia, with all the taxes and shipping fee, i dont think it is cheaper. well normally HTiB are like those philips, samsung, panasonic, sony etc etc.. onkyo will pair their receiver with their branded speaker. Even the tax up to 150% it is still cheaper compare to SenQ or harvey norman trust me, and usually i never get any tax becoz i pray to God a lot. Duh. |
