I'm going to be building a 5.1 HT set up for a friend of mine in exchange for him painting my new house. I really want to build him a high quality system but now I'm second guessing myself and wondering if it would even be worth it. The reason being, this guy was originally going to get a $200 HTIB set up and probably would have thought it sounded fantastic. He already thinks the speakers in his TV sound pretty good.
My question is, would a low/mid grade HT receiver do the modula MTs any justice at all? Can a guy like this learn to appreciate the sound a very high quality speaker can produce? Or do you think I might be better off just buying a bunch of those HiVi buyouts and building something similar to augerpro's MTM set up?
If I end up doing the later, I'll more than likely clog this place up with crossover questions. I do want to make something that sounds good. I know others would be listening to his system too and I'd like to make a good impression on them as well. I would like to build more sets for people I know to help fund my own sick obsession. :B
