We moved into a house with a dedicated home theater room, my first purchase was a 62" DLP which has been great. but I'm currently using my old 2 -channel setup for sound. Since it's a dedicated HT room, I won't have any wife issues with appearance or placement of the speakers - other than two toddlers in the house. The room is 20x15x10 and is used for movies, sports, and concert DVD's.
My current 2-channel setup is 15 yrs old. It consists of an H/K 3600 receiver, and a pair of DCM CX-27 Monitors which are 6ohm. The receiver does have a "subwoofer level" dial on the front and a "R - L" subwoofer out on the back ... I've never used it. My goal is to add modern surround components over time, but still enjoy the room as I go.
My end system will probably be some combination of Axioms with either an H/K, Denon, or Yamaha receiver and a sub. I don't really have a budget since I'm building it over time, but will prob be around 2,000 - 2,500 total.
So my question is what order should I go? I'm really wanting to start with a $500 sub since I can hook one up to my current system. After that it's either a new receiver, or replace my 2 front speakers with Axiom m22ti's... Any suggestions?
