Hi all. I'm noob about audio electronics so i need ur advice on choosing entry level HT audio setup based around receiver. It will be mostly used for watching 1080p movies in HTPC + projector setup
My initial plan was to buy 5.1 PC speakers like Logitechs Z5500 but for that price and avaliability, I've thought that a receiver is better choice.
So, my budget is max 450$ for receiver + 5.1 speakers system.
Room where setup will be is about 4x4m (13x13ft). Speakers must be mounted on the wall.
This is what comes in my price range:
Pioneer HTP-072 - receiver + speakers. as I can see, this is VSX-324-K receiver and S-11 speakers with probably S-21 sub. Price 345$
Pioneer HTP-073 - receiver + speakers. as I can see, this is also VSX-324-K receiver and I don't know which speakers, so it is question does it really justifies cost of 64$ more than 072 model? Price: 410$
Pioneer VSX-323-K (no speakers). Price 215$
Pioneer VSX-423-K (no speakers). Price 260$
Denon AVR-X500 (no speakers). Price 305$
Sony STR-DH730 (no speakers). This one is 7.1 but I don't need two more speaker in system because i don't have place to put them, and they will just be overkill. So, I would use it as 5.1. Price 335$
Yamaha RX-V375 (bez zvučnika). This one is 8ohm. Others are 6ohm. Price 335$
Speakers:
Pioneer S-11 - 5.0 speakers set, so it's without sub. Price 72$
So, what would you recommend me for this price.
