My current roommate is moving out and will be taking his speakers with him, so I will be in the market to finally build a sound system of my own.
I have absolutely nothing, so I will need to purchase a receiver, sub and speakers.
I think I would like to go for a 5.1 channel set-up, my primary uses for the system would be Music, Gaming and watching Blu-Rays/ 3D Blu Rays.
I recently purchased the LG LM6700 tv, so keep this in mind if it will have any affect on which receiver would be best.
If anybody has any recommendations for a good set-up for my purposes, I would love to hear your feedback!
I would like to keep my total cost for the system around $1,500 range, but that is just a ballpark, I will be willing to spend more if necessary.
Below is a picture of my current living room.
