I recently ordered a Pioneer Elite 151 which hopefully will arrive in July, so now I'm looking at sound systems to "complete" my setup.
Disclaimer: I'm way way way more concerned with picture quality than sound quality. I'm not an audiophile and I'm fairly set on the equipment I've picked out
I know this sounds crazy to some to spend thousands on a tv and not have an equal budget for audio but I do have budget limitations so I allotted the most money where I care the most.
Anyway, here's what I'm looking at right now:
Display: Pioneer Elite 151
Receiver: Onkyo SR606
Center: Infinity Primus PC350
Towers: Infinity Primus P362
Subwoofer: Infinity PS28
BD Player: PS3
Other Sources: Xbox 360, Wii, Dish HD DVR
I would really like to add 7.1 sound eventually (maybe christmas), but I'm not right now for two reasons. 1.) I'm not sure really where the heck to place the speakers. 2.) I've had a big enough time convincing the wife to drop all this money on the equipment we're buying right now. I'm attaching a roughly to scale schematic of the room right to this post so maybe somebody could suggest where to put the surround speakers if/when I get them. Please excuse the hackjob sketch, I did it in about 5 min based on the dimensions I remember.
Anyway, I would really like to take advantage of the lossless audio on blu-rays, but I don't know if this is possible with the setup that I have. I know the PS3 can decode it all, but what does the AVR do with the sound that should go to the speakers that I don't have? Am I going to have to keep switching the PS3 audio settings depending on whether it's a dvd or BD disc I'm playing? I can always buy a new dvd player if it's gonna be an issue, but I'd prefer not to.
Thanks in advance for all of the help.
