Hello,
What I want from my HTS is this:
1. Be able to hook up my computer via HDMI to the receiver and get both video and sound. (computer part is done I just need a receiver that will do this)
2. Hook up my PS3 and watch Blu-ray movies...via HDMI.
The easiest was I was thinking of doing this is just buy the Onkyo ht-s7100, but I do not need 7.1 right now, just 5.1 cus my room is small. I would just leave two speakers out then.
But I am not sure if the receiver Onkyo TX-SR606 is good enough for my PC setup.
I was thinking of buying the TX-SR706 model and seperate speakers. I found on another post that Energy speakers and great.
I was thinking of this:
Energy C-C50 Center Channel Loudspeaker - $79.00
Energy C-R100 Surround Loudspeaker - $79.00 x 2 = $158
Energy C-50 Bookshelf Loudspeakers - $99 x 2 = $178
Energy ESW-10 10-Inch Powered Subwoofer - $160
Total $575
Or just get the Energy S5.1 Home Theater System for $599. (Dont know if I want tower speakers tho)
PLUS a reveiver. The SR-606 is around $330. The SR-706 is $488.
My budget is below a $1000.
Now. Is the SR-606 enough for my needs...and is there any other option for the speakers?
My TV is SAMSUNG 52" 1080p LCD HDTV LN52A550
