Right as this is my first av seperates system i dont really want to go the whole 5.1 speaker package as i would like to ad/upgrade as time goes on .
My choice of av recievers is sony 820 or onkyo 509 but have now seen the denon 1912 brand new for 299 ! so im guessing the denon is much better then the sony or onk at that price ? but the denon doesnt upscale/convert ?
The speakers im thinking of are the diamond 9.1 and the sw150 sub all for 230 notes but i notice there like 7 yrs old now so are they past it ? if i go this route then i will ad another pair for the rears in the near future .
Ive also seen the diamond 10.3 floorstanders for 149 ex display , would these be better to start with or just put the 9.1 on stands ? ive read the 9.1 and sw150 would be a great sounding 2.1 set to start with and are a good price at 230 but there age puts me of a little !
Ive also just seen the new jammo s426 hcs3 5speaker pack for 349 in this months whf mag (can get for 279 after google search!) would this be a good choice ?
To end it all ive just been looking at the tannoy v series !! v1 at front and vr at rear then adding center and sub !
What would you do with my speaker choice ? and is it worth paying the extra 70 notes to get the denon over the sony av ?
My set up so far is - lg50pz570 plasma , ps3 fat and samsung virgin v+ box .
