I'm in the beginning stages of building our home theater and want some advice from you guys. I've tried dividing up the budget in somewhat equal portions as for me video/audio/aesthetics are all equally important. I only have a budget of $2,000 for speakers AND a receiver. Since my budget is so limited I am thinking of simply going 2.1 for now and eventually upgrading my system to a 7.2 setup. My thinking is that quality is better than quantity and I'd rather have really good stereo than crappy surround.
I'm thinking of getting the following:
2 - PRO-10 Monitors
1 - CraigSUB(CS) 18.1
Pioneer Elite VSX-32
My room dimensions are 19'8"D x 13' W with 9' ceilings. Acoustic treatment will consist of 7 DIY panels. Use will consist of 50% Movies, 25% Gaming, 25% Sports.
What do you guys think? Please feel free to criticize my proposed setup and/or logic. I really want to have the best audio experience I can get for 2K.
I'm attaching the room layout in case it helps.
Thanks is advance,
