Hi There,
I've finally decided to take the plunge and invest in a home cinema system. I really want Atmos, and I can't run any cables from the ceiling or walls, so after much deliberation I decided to go with the Onkyo SKSHT588, which I'm hoping will do me well with my venture into surround sound. I'm running 4k HDR (Dolby Vision) content and I was thinking a Sony STRDH790. I'm pretty new to all of this, so my first question is; will these two play nice together? Secondly, I'm trying to understand the difference between this and the more expensive model, the STRDN1080. I know the 1080 has a lot more features and content streaming services, but I'll be using my Nvidia Shield so don't care for any of that. If I plan to use the unit for audio only, is it better to go for the cheaper model?
Another thing, I noticed on the SKSHT588 the speakers wires use spring clips. When I renovated my living room, I added binding posts which take banana plugs. Would I be able to buy some clips and simply use the wire which comes with the speakers, or is there something additional I'll need to buy?
Thanks for your time!
