Hello Experts,
I am a newbie in this field. Currently, am planning to set-up a home-theater system in my room which is around 60 sq meters. With this, what is the best A/V receiver and speaker system for a budget of 2000 USD. The A/V receivers & Speaker system I am comparing are Onkyo (A/V receiver) & Wharfe Dale (speaker system) and Yamaha (A/V receiver) & Maurdant Short(speaker system). Really appreciate your inputs.
Thanks,
EROXA

60sqm? Seriously? That's 6x10, 5x12, 8x7.5, BIG room, are you setting up an actual cinema?

RE: Question? Need your inputs.

Hi Big Boss, thanks for the inputs.... I am planning to buy either

1.  Onkyo TX-NR 414 for the receiver and for the speaker Wharf Dale Diamod HCP 5.0 Diamond Speaker system with 10SX-Sub "or"

2.  Yamaha RX-V471 for the receiver and for the speaker Mordaunt Short Mezzo System B.

I can not decide which receiver and speaker I should buy.

Really appreciate any response.

thanks,

EROXA

I wouldn't worry about home cinema, if the room is shrinking that fast I'd get the hell out of there asap
