I recently just moved into my dorm at Chico State, studying to be an engineer. Anyway, i came up here and brought my Logitec z5300's that i run off my computer. It worked great when i was home becuase i had the best system in my house, but the guy down the hall from has a kiplish 2.1 system and it just blows mine out of the water. Now I'm the type of person that likes to do electronic stuff right so i'm looking to start up a home theater system to have when i move out of the dorms and into an apartment. I want to start with a decent receiver that will give me enough options for the future, then a nice set of speakers and a sub. I think that would be a good place to start and then as budget allows i can slowly start adding more. What would you guys suggest in terms of components? I would like to keep it around 600 but i'm willing to wait longer and spend a little more if it means doing it right. Thanks for any input at all. |
