Hmmnn..
Children can always be trained to not touch spkrs.. anyway, u can always leave de dustcvrs on.. Surrs can be wall mounted.. All gud reasons to go for 5.1 instead of a 3.1.. althou' a LCR is alrdy loads better than de tv spkrs.. A set of 5 bk shlvs make a veri decent system if u can garner in a decent sub.. of cos u can always go 2 way 1st if budget restricts.. D |

QUOTE(specuvestor @ Mar 2 2011, 06:22 PM) ^^^Yes want to avoid clutter as much as possible. The Harman Kardon (it's my mum's in another house, sorry if I miscomm) actually has an option for 3.1 so I was hoping if there is a reasonable AVR now with such option. PC HT setup via 35mm jack hasn't been able to impress me but I was pleasantly surprised by a >10 year old AVR system. Like tat..Yes they will not touch when instructed but when the THREE of them play together.... Frankly I find the Kuro 17W (instead of the usual 10W) TV speakers pretty decent and sounds ok with my 10" Boston subwoofer (the kuro has a dedicated LFE out). Only gripe is the mid-range doesn't sound as full as the Harmon Kardon 3.1. Mid range budget is not an issue. Any advise in just adding a centre speaker (what brand?) via the Monitor out from the kuro would makes sense?  Wall mountin is an option or put a small spkr on ur tv cabinet wif blu tac - its pretty stable tat way.. If wan to meld a ctr spkr wif d kuro.. ya .. a decent soundbar shld suffice .. it ll please d wife too.. but if its me a stereo setup beats even tat [ at d sweet spot, tat is ] plus I dont tink a decent sound bar is tat much cheaper, is it??
