hi all
i am interested in upgrading my aging AV system with a brand new spanking one to go into our new house ...we wont be moving in till Feb/March next year so thought id start doing some research into what my options would be.... so we got plenty of time to find the right fit.
my current AV is close to 10 years old.
its a Sony STR-DH820 running a 5.1 setup (the speakers are sony as well, not sure on the model as i cant see any model info on the speakers)
the living room in our new house will be around 2.9m x 5.6x (give or take)
i dont really have any AV systems in mind at the moment as im not entirely sure as to what i should be getting.. hence why im asking.
one AV system that i have noticed and comes up regularly as quite decent is the denon avr-x2700h... so i guess my price point at the moment is this model.
one of the reason i was looking at this AV is because it comes with hdmi 2.1 for my PS5.
ive got a Samsung Q80T TV so will need something that works well with this... should i consider a samsung system? just keeping it in the family so they work well together.
im not an audiophile so i dont need best of the best but i do want to make sure that the sound is crisp and clear.
one of the biggest issues i have with the sony system is that when were watching a movie the effects like explosions, music etc is so bloody loud and it overpowers the dialog... so you end up having to constantly make it quieter or louder.. im sure im not the only one that struggles with this.
so i was hoping that somebody can throw some AV suggestions/recommendations that i can take a look.
cheers!
