New guy but not new to the industy I use to sell high-end home audio and car audio all through college...best job I ever had.
For home A/V sold:
B&W
Monitor
PSB
MK
Marantz
Rotel
Parasound
NAD
Intregra
Mark Levinson/Proceed
KimberKable
AudioQuest
XLO/VDO
and all kinds of killer tube stuff
Well I am remodeling my basement and now it is time to do it up right (at least within this house's limits)...I have gone through a lot of threads and have a lot of looming questions that are being discussed...it appears I am not alone on what exactly to do right now as the industry is a state of transistion
I currently have:
Marantz SR870 w/the RC2000
Marantz DVD 810
Marantz 5 Disc CD
PSB Alpha's all the way around
B&W ASW1000 Sub
What I am going to buy:
B&W 600 series - no need to explain that -
Need to do ceiling speakers for surround...and undecided on that
Keeping sub
Torn on receiver (like a lot of other people) love the Rotel sound! Hands down the best sounding for the $ IMHO
But the whole HDMI switching would be great because I am running wires in the wall so looking at the Denon 2807...wish Marantz would offer it on the 5700 like the Denon? Worth the wait of another year and get by with the SR870?
TV - Panasonic 50" Plasma best bang for the buck picture and when 1080p gets out of the stratosphere I will be moved into a new house ready for the next upgrade!
DVD - no clue - the 810 is old and has now Component much less HDMI. I will use the PS3 for Blue-ray until this Blueray vs. HDVD gets sorted out
Anyway the whole A/V receiver thing is rehash of a lot of other threads going on here but any input would be great and valued... :T
Thanks all!
