Hiya T,
Not an expert on HTPC so won't comment on that but I saw that you stated BOSE there, any reason why you chose that for your audio? Is Wife Acceptance Factor the ulitmate to you? Erh Sony also is not very well regarded in the AVR circle( Pls don't flame me here ah, Sony lovers...) Regards Dirtrun |

QUOTE(Traveler @ Apr 7 2006, 03:19 PM) Hi dirtrun, Sorry a bit late here, busy...I picked Bose, as I already have a 5.1 system that I brought back from the US 7 years ago, so I just need to pick up 2 satellite speakers to complete the set. Plus it's small and easy to fit into the design for my new place. Cost + convenience. No wife, so no need to please anyone but myself  As for Sony, I picked that simply for: 1. Standardization on one brand for HT, eases the interconnection and controlling the whole system. Already have 2 units of Sony 300-CD disc changers, planning on getting the Sony PVR as I think it has the best features of all PVRs I can find in Malaysia. 2. I go for features and ease of use, rather than ultimate AV performance, as I am not too picky on how "high-end" the audio will sound. So long as good enough for me. Most of the time, I don't think I can tell the difference anyway.   But bose sats has proprietary jacks, correct me if I am wrong, so you will have problems blending the 2. If you like your existing 5.1 sound, why don't you get another 2 spkrs to up to 7.1. Sony if got cash go the ES range, much better sound...but unfortunately also very exp. Cheers. Dirtrun |
