Just some cheap-ass Edifier speakers. R1855 and R1280DBs.

Initially I thought that instead of buying the entire 5.1 or 7.1 setup at once, it's better to buy 2.0 for now for the pc and expand from there, especially since I'm planning to move house soon-ish. Don't fancy the unpacking & repacking.

Upon reading what you've said, I guess I still have much to learn, and more finer details and nuances of the AV scene to consider sweat.gif

your 5.1 or 7.1 for pc desk usage? or Home theater usage? if you are planning for pc surround better get those logitech or edifier 5.1 / 7.1 those more suitable for near field listening.. and you dont need to invest on AVR and bunch of speakers..
come back here once u have decided after you moved your house in case you need more help.. many shifu here can help you out.

Unboxing the beast.... Damn... it is really big....

Comparison old and new... .haha brows.gif  brows.gif
[attachmentid=10933492][attachmentid=10933491]

Luckily can still fit in...
[attachmentid=10933490]
Old sub... so small....
[attachmentid=10933489]

Do a quick calibration and tested some movie, the bass more solid and can feel the vibration on the sofa....

Nice... no regret at all

Hello, I plan to setup home theater system mainly for movies usage.

Budget around RM1.5K to RM2K.
I can stretch the budget until RM2.5K

My house living room size around 10ft x 10ft and live in Condominium.

Any recommendations? Wish to get Edifier S360DB or S3000 Pro.
Any other recommendations besides above?
Plan to connect to TV, don't need DVD player.

2.1 or 2.0 system is fine.
If got 5.1 then consider as a bonus.
*
not the correct thread for the question bro.. here the discussion is more on AVR setup.

you need to check first if your tv support 3.5mm line out or optical.. most modern tv uses hdmi and optical. some had ditches 3.5mm or rca out.

Both S360DB or S3000 pro supports optical and 3.5mm but not HDMI in. For normal usage i think it can enhance ur tv audio for sure.


For alternative, the best u can get is those sound bar with your budget if you prefer HDMI connection. Or you can invest on airpulse A80 (2k+) or airpulse A100 (3k+) where it supports for subwoofer out where you can buy a active subwoofer to enhance ur experience. One day when u r serious into HT and wanted to plan for dedicated system.. these airpulse u can downgrade it for ur music listening and they will still able to do a good job if you are not too demanding.

Oh, I'm sorry.
One of the member to ask me on this thread for home theater setup. Apologies on the wrong thread.
Which thread should I ask for recommendations?

Wish to ask on home theater thread but that thread only for showing as clean thread. Afraid cannot ask there.

its the same group of ppl there laugh.gif
but depends on what you are trying to achieve.. if you want to use pc audio for ur tv maybe u can try
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3605086/+1740

but for ur information there are other kind of setup beside getting a pair of active edifier or a 2.1 edifier.. all depends on ur budget
1) amp + 2 speakers
2) sound bar
3) entry level AVR + 2 speakers

then ppl are so focus on atmos equipment rather than the experience the sound effect.. sweat.gif

Hi guys, thinking of upgrading my current Denon 1610 AVR to one with HDMI 2.1 with eARC to work with LG OLED C1 but retaining my existing 5.1 speakers and subwoofer.

Any entry level HDMI 2.1 with eARC AVRs to recommend?

Denon s760h.. 8k support earc 7 channels.

MultEQ-X is not bad, IMO as good as ARC Genesis but not as easy to use.

Thanks for the advice. Any difference between the S760H and the X1700H? It almost same price in Lazada.
*
Yes x1700h is slightly more powerful n have better eq handling. S760h cost slightly below 3k and x1700h cost slightly below 4k. So if ur budget allows get x1700h. Or u can look into yamaha avr as well
