Ok,
Now that I have got my car stereo squared away it is time to start thinking about a budget home audio solution. I'll be moving out of the 'rents house this spring and my computer, even with my high quality Altec Lansing 5.1 system, just isn't cutting it for audio anymore.
I need to purchase speakers and a receiver and I promised my fiance I'd keep it < $1000. I was thinking 300-400 on the receiver and the rest on speakers. I already have a dvd/cd player. I've never really purchased home audio equipment before, obviously I am looking for some sort of 5.1/6.1/7.1 solution with DTS, Dolby Digital, etc. What are the things I should be looking for?
If anyone has any specific suggestions (or can point me to any good info sites), I'd be happy to hear them too.
Thanks.
Dave
