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.

Sorry not much help sweat.gif

Since you mostly for movie, 5.1 system would be better than 2.0 or 2.1
You can get AVR + speakers. Example are like this seller stuff

Or get all in one like this. But I think less popular choice for this kind of setup nowadays.

Now more popular are soundbar because it's compact and also can simulate surround sound. There are very cheap one with not great sound and there's model with ATMOS but not cheap.
Last time I think this is one of the popular model when I was thinking to buy soundbar. Don't know if there's newer and better model now

AVR + speakers can easily go way above your budget, especially if you want to get AVR with more features or branded speaker.
If soundbar, you can try read this thread to see if there's useful info for soundbar that suitable for you.

Thank you for the information. Already ask there before also.
Someone recommended the creative stage V2 but in Malaysia only got V1. Probably get the 2.0/2.1 or 5.1 soundbar or 2.1 with atmos. Will take time to decide. Thank you again ya.

Maybe myself thinking to get either Sony S20R or S500RF.
That Samsung Soundbar someone bought around 3K during 9.9 sales. Or the Edifier S360DB or S3000 Pro.
Try to make it simple if without cable around to the sofa area.
