Newbie and just a couple of ?'s

[bitjunkie]

Hi to all I'm glad I could find this forum,

I'm starting out with a home theater and I was torn between a denon 4802r and what I ended up getting the Rotel RSX-1055 ($1000 on ebay NIB) I at this point have only 4 speakers a pair of B&W dm602 s’3 and a pair of ds6 s'3. I already bought a VTF-3 sub from DR. HSU and I'm saving up some more cash to get the rest of the speakers I need the LCR600 S3 and a pair of 604 S3. and an other Rotel 2 ch amp to power the other pair of B&W's im going to get

My Question to you guys that have lived the upgrades the trade-ins the awe... this sucks moments. I love watching movies and occasional album typically something like Dave Matthews or Blues traveler.

Am I headed in the right direction with this equipment? I want the 604's in the front obviously with the lcr600 as center the ds6 as surround and the 602 as rears.

I also need some recommendations on DVD players do I need a DVD player that cost upwards of $700 to play good progressive scan video.

Just wondering where I should go from here.

Thanks for the attention.

Do you need a $700 DVD player? No you don't unless you want top notch audio as well. Even then you can get away with a good bit less then that in some models. The Denon 2200 and 2900 are two very highly regard video players that also are universal DVD-A, DVD-V and SACD. The 2200 can be bought for about $400 and the 2900 is about $700 used. If audio isn't that important panasonic and denon both make lower priced players that have exceptional video quality.

I don't have much experience with B&W speakers though so I'll leave that side to someone else.
