Advice please oh gurus of HC.
I am looking at a new dvd, amp and speakers to do justice to my 6 month old PW6.
I have a small(ish) lounge with the screen on the wall.
I don't want big speakers (floor standing is right out) and was looking at the US made Orb speakers as they seem to get good reviews - obviously haven't been able to demo any yet!
I am also leaning toward a Denon 3805 amp because a) everyone is raving about it b) the remote looks COOOOOL and is a learning one (I particularly like how the buttons change to the device selected) c) the video upscaling to component and switching means I will be able to have good feed to my screen (its currently S-Vid) and just the one component cable to the screen.
I would like to use HDMI/DVI in future but Panasonic have some issues to work out there....
Is the 3805 too beefy for what I need? Would the 2805 work as well in this scenario (has the video function but not the cool remote )
Would it be too powerful for the ickle biddy Orbs?
What sub should I go for with the Orbs? I don't want the Orb one due to shipping and power supply issues.
Does ilink or Denon link work only on DVD-A ie music, and not on movies? Is it going to enhance the movie viewing side of things at all?
Cheers
