I am trying to get suggestions on a home theater setup that would work well given the space I have to work with. This is in the basement of my townhouse. I have included a simple layout with dimensions below:
I am starting with nothing... no TV, no reciever, speakers, etc... Given this, I want to get a big screen TV first off. Given the setup and dimensions of the room above, and that the optimal seating location will be at least 11'-12' away, I am thinking that a 50" or 56" TV would do.
In the picture above, the 'X' marks represent where I would place speakers for the sound setup. The 'X' on the TV is the center channel and there is a shelf above that can hold it. Location-wise, does this setup seem to work? The room itself is carpeted with medium pile carpet and the sofas are cloth and rather thick. I haven't put a whole lot of thought into the audio setup, but I was looking at the Yamaha RX-V2400 receiver to start with. Does this room setup seem to work? The room can be rearranged in nearly any fashion as it stands currently.
Any suggestions and thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!
