Say your on a budget, live in an apartment complex, and are dying for good audio, what order would you purchase your speakers in? Obviously a good pair of right and left speakers, but then what would you do next?

I see that you're a student. Study hard. I have lived in plenty of crappy apartments, now I own apartment buildings. Best Wishes.

Yeah i go to the University of Missouri. My major is personal financial planning, so if that clears things up thats why i dont really feel like putting all my money in one place right this second. I just spent a bunch of money on some separates from emotiva and also just picked up some towers. Then i set myself up with an IRA that i poured alot of money into. I dont live at a crappy apartment complex which i am very fortunate for. I just have been killing myself on what to get next. But i guess it doesnt matter that much since i will eventually get everything. Thanks for the help guys

You're a student. Screw it..take your money..put it into a decent enough HTIB. Use that until you're graduated, making more money, and/or living in bigger space. Then sell that HTIB (or use it for another room, office, basement, garage whatever), and get yourself a new home theater system to your liking. HTIB should cost around $300-1000 depending how low or high quality of one you get, and im sure you'll be happy with it for the time being..it's what i did in college.

HTIB....i'd rather sell my kidney for the money....
haha im not that bad off, im currently using the LMC-1/LPA-1 combo from Emotiva (kicka$$) and i have a pair of Swan Diva 5.1's that satisfy my tower speaker craving. But i guess im more or less extremely confused what to go with next either a sub, or center, then surrounds. I will only be able to get one now for the next few months so i need it to satisfy my audio cravings. Either some sweet bass from a sub, or some awesome dialouge for movies from a center....the choice is making my mind explode, probably not a hard choice for some, but i like to make wise decisions and not regret it.

I'm happy with my 3.0 setup right now in my apartment. Going from 2.0 to 3.0 made a world of difference for me and I'm pretty happy I went with this setup instead of a 2.1.
