Recommendation For A Decent Sound System.

Recommended Posts

3d avatar is exclusive for panny 3d tv customers. Was trying out LG 3d cinema tv, the new range. Price is good. Spectacles same as those used in cinema, therefore cheap to replace. I am thinking of approaching best denki to change my order from panny 58 inch to LG 55 inch & 42 inch. Wonder if they will allow. Reason being, LG is LED, lower energy consumed, thinner, cheaper and lighter 3d glasses to replace. But have to for go the 3d avatar movie.... So sad... :bangwall:

This model? lg-47le8900

Anyway, no worries. Panny only pay for exclusive rights till Feb 2012 next year. After that, Avatar 3D will be released to the public for purchase.

Panasonic to have Avatar 3D to itself until 2012

Great deal. Never compare with the latest LG 200hz 3DTV?

i did compare.great review on that lg...just my preference on japan made...got advice from my fren and even from those sound system guys that if m really serious about having a real home theatre system...plasma is the beat choice on picture quality which also give more natural picture than led.only disadvantage is the high power consumption.

Agree that plasma give the best picture quality and best if tv made in Japan which is y I placed order for the panny. However on the thought that the LG picture quality is also quite good and future more lower maintenance on the 3d glasses. Should the glasses fail, it is cheaper and easier to replace. For active 3d glasses, different models have different shutter rate, if the glasses were to be damaged or spoil, we might not be able tobget something compatible in future. :yamseng:

Can members kindly give some input?

My AVR choices for now,

1. pioneer vsx 921

2. denon 1912

3. onkyo 609

and pairing with 5.1 speakers,

1. Boston Acoustics Soundware xs 5.1

Or should I get simple and go for Onkyo ht-s5400

I got the 58VT20 for 9 mths and also bought few 3D Bluray disks, but i've never finsihed one 3D movie at one run so far, too tired for me to wear the glass to watch movie for more than 1 hour. :)

I choosed 58vt20 model bcoz the picture quality are really no horse run and it looks good at SD also. 3D feature not in my consideration list when i purchase the TV. but since it came with 3D, so bo bian... buy loh. Haahaa...

And I prefer 2D Avatar instead of 3D. I watched both version in cinema, 2D looks better. Just my 2 cents worth... :)

Went to listen to the 685 and 684... woo... a little above my budget... a pair of 685 with stands is $1500 and if I get the HTM61 is $1100.... haiz....

Unfortunately, I cannot get their 686 as my surround as they are taller than 22cm... that need to be fitted at the top right corner

Currently, seems like Tannoy Arena Satellite fit that space of 22cm... Know of any surround speakers that fit my space constraints? :(

Hi all, i'm know nothing about audio therefore need advices from the gurus here.

I'm intend to turn one of my room into a TV room but don't know what sound system should i go for?

No need to be too pro, but a decent entertainment system which can achieve the sound effect similar of being in a cinema.

Most of the time i'm will be playing the video/movie from my laptop so not use for BR.

For my case, which basic entry level system should i get and where should i purchase from with a decent price?

TIA
