Hi,
My wife and I just bought a new TV. [Vizio 47 inch LED based LCD] We love the image quality. One thing we both agreed on is the sound. It is tinny and just horrible in general. So we are going to be in the market for a new sound system. Before relied on the TV's internal sound which on the Samsung we had was pretty good for our living room. So here is the layout.
room size 14 feet by 12 feet. We long ways from the TV. So we are approximately 10 feet from the TV. Floors are hardwood. Standard painted sheet rock walls and ceilings. 8 feet all. So a pretty standard room.
What kind of home theater system should I be looking for? What kind of wattage? Speaker arrangement? Pricing, I would like to keep it around $200-400ish. We are not trying to get crazy. Wiring arrangement is a big one. Fishing walls is doable. Am I looking at a trip to the local home improvement big box store for speaker wire?
I will be looking forward to seeing what the [H] has to say.
