Thanks for replying so quickly. Here are the details: The theater will be in a basement with no windows and controlable ambient light. The space is about 14' wide by 32' deep by 7' tall. I am wanting to use 16' of the depth to use as a theater, and the rest is for a game room. I am thinking of using a sony vpl-hs10 front projector to project a 16:9 image that is about 8'wide. This will roughly put the projector 16' from the screen. The seeting will be placed about 12 to 14' feet from the screen. So essencially I have a theater room with three sides, the 14'wall is concidered the front where the screen will be, and 16'feet of wall on both sides. There is nothing to seperate the theater from the game room. I am considering buying some of Axioms: M60's for front, vp100 for center, qs4's for suround, ep350 for the sub, and maybe a qs4 for the center if I decide to go with a 6.1 system. Leaning more toward just a 5.1 system because there is no real place to mount a center rear speaker, or I could go with a 7.1 and mount them on either side of the projector.
So with a projector and screen running about 2,500.00, and speaker pakage running at about 2,000.00 with a buget of about 6,000.00 that leaves me with about 1,500.00 to spend on a the other equipment, I want to alot about 500.00 for cabling an speaker wires, so I am ultimately left with a 1,000.00. I already have a cd and dvd player. So the last thing I am looking for is a reciever or an amp and suround processor?? Any sugestions for a good reciever for around 1k? I was hoping that it would be compatible with at least 6.1 sourond.
Wow that is a lot of info! Thanks again for all your help.
