Hello All,
I’m a new member and in the process of making a final list of audio and video equipment for my finished basement. I’m not an expert in the field but do appreciate quality sound. The use will be 80% TV and 20% music.
So far here’s my list for a budget of about $4,700. I’d like to stay under $5K bust still get quality components us much as possible.
Speakers:
ascendacoustics.com
CMT-340SE - fronts
CMT-340SEC - center
CBM-170 – surrounds
Subwoofer: HSU- VTF-2 MK 3
hsuresearch.com/products/vtf-2-mk3.html
Receiver:
Onkyo TX-SR705
TV
Panasonic TH-50PZ77U 50" Plasma HDTV (1080p)
The immediate TV room is 13’ X 20’ X 7.5’. The TV will be placed by the 13’ wall. The back of the room is opened to the rest of the basement which is another 15’ X 30’.
I current get Verizon HD TV, the box has HDMI output. I’m hoping to connect everything using HDMI cables for the best signal quality.
I wanted to get some opinions on my set up before I pull the trigger. I’m looking for any red flags as far as any possible compatibility issue that may effect the quality of the audio/video. Also suggestions are welcome to consider different components, brands.
Thank you,
Alan
