I'm building a new home theatre system to go along with my Samsung 67'' DLP TV A750 model but I have totally no knowledge in this area. I'm trying to figure out if I should buy seperate components (receiver/speakers seperately) or get a whole system. I will also connect the PS3 to it. I'm not really picky and I don't listen to music everyday. I just want a good home theatre system to go along with the TV and PS3 when I watch BR DVD sometimes. I do want a solid sound quality though, btw it doesn't have to be really loud, what I want is good solid sound when watching blue ray DVDs.


If anyone can recommend me a good receiver/speakers system, I would appreciate it.


My room size is 15 feet wide, 20 feet long, and about 10 feet high, also open to kitchen/dinning room and living room too. My budget is around 1200 bucks for the whole system (receiver/sub/5.1 speakers)


I found this Panasonic SC-PT956 for 300 bucks in costco. Is this good enough for PS3 games/movies experience? I notice the high 10% THD rating at 1000W and 1% THD at 428W. Can anyone tell me the difference between RMS power rating and FTC power rating?


Also, I intend to build a home threatre system starting with 2 of these infinity P362B (130 bucks each) along with a yamaha receiver RS-V661 (330 bucks) as an alternate option if the Panasonic system doesn't satisfy my demand for quality.


Any advice would be appreciated.

The Yamaha/Infinity combo is by far your best option for quality. You'd also have some nice options for speakers and a sub for $1000, it's worth loong into what else is out there besides the Infinity...but they're good too.
