Hi, i am new to AVS and to anything related to audio.
i need help setting up my home theater, my room size is w10 L17 H10, i already purchases an onkyo 1009 AV receiver and a panasonic PT-AE7000U projector.
I need help setting up my audio speakers plzzzz, my price range is $3000 to $4000 for the 5.1 set.
i am currently looking at buying polk rti a7 series but i don't know if it is too much for my room, knowing that i will be using it for blu ray movies and gaming mostly and rarely for music.

The problem is that i have a disability and i am not able go audio testing, i appreciate any help.

You may want to put your room dimensions
but my suggestion would be for around 3 grand, if you are doing mostly Blu-rays and Games, I'd go with 5 Sho-10s from ChaseHomeTheatre ~2000 (I'd call Craig to see if he's willing to give you a discount for purchasing 5 speakers)

Then pick your favorite ~1k sub
Epik Empire
HSU VTF-15H
RYTHMIK AUDIO FV15

Chase has packages for 5.1 and 5.2 with the sho-10's in your price range. I'm going to pick some up next month.

Here is the link: Chase Packages

What size is your room and are we talking lower levels or do you like to crank it up a bit? Also what percentage HT and what percentage music?
