seems like you have plenty items to buy.

Have you got the quote for DZ 7 yet?

Slowly bro, I also have the same planning as you, either get the sub first and follow by an avr maybe by end of the year or next year!

My current setup is 5.1... just small potatoes... planning for an upgrade

Avr, sub and surround speaker... one at a time!

As for Dali 5 and 7, may I know, how much price is the difference between this two? If, it is not much difference, the DZ 7 is to be reckon with for long run usage (ie. moving to a spacious room later, upgrading & etc...) and if your living hall is spacious. The DZ 7 with its 7" driver size should have a lot better midrange and more detail with greater depth and can sustain deep bass notes for longer and it will be able produce bigger sound in larger space. However, the DZ 5 should be good enough should you decide to go with it.

Glad that you have come to a decision and good choice there bro!

bread is a healthy meal though!

I agree with you bro!

Some other brands are more expensive and this brass base spike RM5 is a good price.

Maybe you can request them to give you FOC since getting a pair of expensive speaker from them.

Haha... During promo some dealers may give out free gifts... maybe during AV show got chance!

Maybe like buy projector free projector screen or buy speaker free brass spike...

If compared with SVS Pb2000, in terms of output and low-frequency extension, it does not dig as deep as PB2000.

Wow! Very cool setup there bro! Your Tube amp must be very good!

Btw did use any power amp for HT setup?

I see, so you use tube amp to drive your LR channel?

Then the sound must be very nice? If compared using between a power amp and tube amp which one will be better? I think it will sound different with the respective amp and I haven't test tube amp wt HT setup.

I see, yeah I saw some tube amps are quite reasonably priced and if it's sounds as good as some power amp it is an option to consider. But what about maintenance wise for tube amp, is it expensive especially on the bulbs?

I see, so any reason why u chose tube amp instead of power amp for HT setup?

Yeah, I like the warm and with a more full-bodied sound of the tube amp too for music but I've never tried using it with the HT setup.

So it will give the same effect for HT as well and it should be very good! Thanks for sharing bro!

Btw, do we need to get a good tube amp to paired with the avr for HT? I saw some like PrimaLuna Prologue 4 which is quite affordable but not sure is it good for HT setup.
