So I was hanging out with my friend at a 24-hour greasy spoon last night/this morning. His older brother is getting married soon and just purchased his first house. It's pretty nice. He's going to have a Man Cave in the garage attic (he already made a $5000 shopping list at Lowe's) as well as other improvements. I asked what else and my friend said they're going to put in a theater. My interest was piqued.
For reference, my friend works in the electronics department at Wal Mart, so he's familiar with TVs, DVD players, etc, but not too much with hi-fi. When I asked him what kind of speakers he was putting in, this was his response:
"Well, Bose has a sale every 6 months and..."
To which I replied that Bose sucks. He was skeptical. So, now I have to work on him to get some decent speakers that look pretty and sound great. I have no idea on budget yet, but when I do, I know I'll be posting here to get some input. I'm hoping I (with the help of Audioholics) can get the Man Cave in the basement to kick as much *** as possible.
