In Reply to: RE: So, do I really need an HT receiver? posted by dvb on September 01, 2010 at 17:15:10
While redoing my basement I bought a 32" tv with a built-in blu ray player for my bedroom. (Musical Fidelity stereo integrated, Meadowlark Shearwater speakers)I'm pretty happy with just a 2 channel set up for almost all of my tv/movie watching, but there's really something great about a surround system with a good sci/fi flick!
If you have the room and the funds, go ahead! A decent audio/video receiver can be had for around $800, and the Denon line is pretty easy to set up. They have a built-in EQ that measures the room acoustics and adjusts the channel level accordingly. Most manufacturers have it these days, but I've always preferred Denon for overall sound, reliability, and ease of use.
Baba-Booey to you all!

Good point about the room - ours is less than ideal -
We are viewing and listening across the width of the room, using only half the room, instead of across the length, so the other half of the room is "empty" as an AV space - so, probably pretty hard to balance surround sound.
