You can start with let's say...

- Onkyo 308 / Denon 1610 / Yamaha 465... around RM1.6k
- BD Player with BDlive around RM8xx.00
- Entry level Speaker System around RM1.2k (with active sub)

At least... this peasant setup still sound much better than HTIB.

AZBRO is right, i tried many HTiB... the sound berterabor... LOL. End of the day, just humble opinion.

To other pro users,... sorry for my peasant-type of suggestion. LOL

if you want it to be cheaper, get yamaha rx-v367 (about RM12XX). let the bd player decode hd audio and send it to the avr through hdmi for amplification.

I think that one can get 1K... if those smaller shops can clear "365" fast.

Actually, the garage sale in LYN got lots stuff ...just recently, someone sold a few new generation Sony AVR + 5.1 speaker at less than RM2K..of course the stocks finish like hot cakes.

And if you look hard enough, PM those guys, you can get a good deal..but dun trust anyone...go and see for yourself first before buying it.

Yes... the RM1799.00 classy setup with glossy black finish...

367 can get less than 1k?
365 HDMI switching only. not repeater.

Yes, because once they clear the 365... 367 will take over the pricing of 365. Try checking on smaller AV shops.

May I know a good replacement for BD Player as I don't think I will buy blu ray disk (at least for now)?
or its a mistake not having one doh.gif

If I were you, I would choose Full HD Media Streamers with BD tray. Example:-
1) HDi Dune Prime 3.0
2) Popcorn Hour C-200

For me, BD players can be quite rigid even with BD Live. Just my personal feelings. smile.gif
