Folks, my BiL is moving to to a new home and planning to setup a AV room (13 X13ft). I have been out of AV for more than 10yrs now...technology and equipment would have moved on.
Appreciate your advise, and places to visit to look for a reasonable AV /HT system. I think his budget for HT is about 20K (excluding TV). Thanks |

I have been out of AV for more than 10yrs now...technology and equipment would have moved on. What a bad room to choose. A square room is not good for sound at all. Perhaps he want to consider other room. Any way, is he going for latest surround or just anything will do ? Any specific requirement ?Appreciate your advise, and places to visit to look for a reasonable AV /HT system. I think his budget for HT is about 20K (excluding TV). Thanks |

LaminatedButterfly this setup look very familiar...hehehe
VeeJay20k is a good budget to start with 13'x13'obviously is not a preffered room but doable... I'd get a 5.1system to start with.... Personally i prefer Onkyo avr....but other brands latest models do support Atmos and DTS-X as well. I would go for minimum Oppo 103D for source.... |

If is tight on budget AVR can get Yamaha as is 100% made in Malaysia. Check out the aventage series. So if he want atmos / DTS X than will need ceiling speakers as well. So he want 5.1.4 ? 7.1.4 ? Any prefer brand of speakers ? Will recommend svs for the sub for sure.
