Hey guys and gals, new to the forum, was wondering if you audiophytes could help me out.
I want to buy a receiver and around 5 speakers + sub woofer setup for my bedroom.
I want the to hook up the speakers/receiver to my computer which will have the
Newegg.ca - ASUS Xonar DX 7.1 Channels PCI Express x1 Interface Sound Card and to my PS3/Samsung 46" LED TV
I listen to a wide range of music from old rock to trance, and play games like Battlefield 3 on PC/Last of Us on PS3.
The room is fairly small at around 128"(10.8 ft) x 102"(8.6 ft). The TV is located in the center of the 128" wall, right above my computer monitor, and would like to put speakers in each corner of the room. I just want to get the best sound quality for my budget.
The receiver doesn't need to have any crazy features like built in Pandora or Spotify since Canadians cannot use those services without going through substantial hoops. A basic AV system should work that has a remote that will allow me to change between my PC/TV/PS3
My budget is around $700 Canadian Dollars, and I don't mind buying online.
I don't know much about audio equipment so any advice would really be appreciated.
