This is what I currently have as a main home theater:
Display: Panasonic TH-42PW5
DVD Player: Pioneer DV610AV-K
A/V Receiver: Harman Kardon AVR 8500
Mains: Klipsch RF-7
Center: Klipsch RC-7
Surrounds: Klipsch RS-7
Subwoofer: Seaton Sound SubMersive
I setup the above in 2004, ran it without a subwoofer till 2009, and then added a SubMersive. The only thing I've changed since 2004 is the DVD player as my original DVD player (Harman Kardon DVD 30) went bad.
As you can see, it is still in the DVD ages.
I do have a Blu-ray HTIB connected to a 1080p TV in the living room though. While that is an Full HD setup, the sound quality is no where near of this main home theater despite it being DVD-based. It's a HTIB so can't expect much obviously.
Now, this is what I'm planning to get in 2-3 years time for the main home theater (once things have been "standardized" and the dust settles for all/most new technologies).
Room size is roughly 12 x 11 x 9.5 feet.
Display: 65-77" LG OLED UHDTV
Ultra HD Blu-ray player: Some good player that is out at the time
Processor: Trinnov Altitude32 8-16
Mains: Seaton Sound Catalyst 8C
Center: Seaton Sound Catalyst 8C
Side surrounds: Seaton Sound Catalyst 8C
Back surrounds: Seaton Sound Catalyst 8C
Ceiling speakers: 4 x the upcoming Seaton Sound Catalyst on-walls or the upcoming/updated Spark
Subwoofers: 2 x Seaton Sound SubMersive HPi+ with 2 x Seaton Sound SubMersive HP-Slave
So, in total, it is/will be a 7.4.4 setup.
Any comments/opinions will be appreciated.
