I am slowly putting together my HT system. I have the Sony KDSR60XBR1 for my television,I use my PS3 for my bluray/dvd player,now I am looking in to purchasing a new receiver.I am looking for something with hdmi connectivity and something that is going to be able to handle the new hd audio formats.I just ordered Ascend Acoustics 340SE's for my L,C,R and also a pair of 340SE's for the rears. I am in an apartment,so I cant go too crazy. I would also like to add a sub to this.Whats a HT system without a sub,right? What would be some options for that? Thanks for your help.

Denon and Yamaha are excellent choices for a receiver. For a sub I would go with an SVS SB-12. Its thier smallest sub (but dont let that fool you) and being in an apartment the small size is nice.
What are you looking to spend - that will help narrow down the choices.- Bottom

Yes, look at SVS for your sub. www.svsound.comCHRIS

Yup, I would go for an SVS sub maybe halfway up their product scale, and a mid-range Denon/Yamaha receiver. Good solid system. If you have to give or take between the two, I'd lean more towards the sub. Sub technology doesn't change a lot, so if you buy a good sub, you can own it for decades. Receiver technology is going to change rapidly, so as your income increases, you can buy nicer and nicer models over the years.CHRIS

Now for the sub. This will have some of the biggest impact when it come to home theater and certainly a place where you want to get the best you can for the money. To get the best bang for the buck I would start at the online companies: Outlaw Audio, SVS, HSU, and Axiom Audio. All make great subs well within your range. You can find decent subs elsewhere that may match up in price but cant compete in performance.
Have you looked at any subs or receivers yet? Any that you are leaning towards? Like I said, you have some excellent options and should be very pleased with whatever you wind up with.- Bottom
