hi all
bit of a long first post i know, but bear with me...
Having spent many months lurking around these forums, i wonder if i could ask you guys for some help...
I am lucky enough to have a room, some way away from the main house, that i have used as a bedroom / home theater for the past year.
However the upgrade bug has bitten again, and now have the option to start from scratch on a new 'install'
Having read many excellent discussions on these forums, i would be very grateful for any ideas, thoughts or past experiences regarding choice of amp,speakers,dvd,projector etc.
however, having posted this in the speaker section can i ask your thoughts on a possible speaker amp combo that i am currently looking into.
My old setup was based around the Kef Q series speakers, using Q3's for front and rear, a Q9c, and Q1's as additional surrounds,and a Denon 3802 amp, with the yammy ystw800 sub.
while quite good with stereo music,i thought he system lacked any real punch when watching films.
I have read lots of good things about the M&K 750thx package and have also been looking at the Kef home thx speakers.
I realise this will probably mean a change in amp. will the Pioneer 2011 drive these speakers ok,or will the impedence of these speakers mean looking at the denon avc11sr as a minimum?
The room itself measures a fairly compact 4m X 3M.
I will have circa £6k to spend pending the sale of all my old equipment, although this will have to include speakers/sub,amp, dvd player and possibly projector ( i already have the ptae100)
Many thanks in advance,
Grant
