Receivers

JohnTravoltaisMyHero · Mon Feb 02, 2004 1:48 am

I'm planning on starting on a home theater system, possibly sometime by the end of this year. I'm interested in starting off with a very good receiver, then eventually speakers. I've only got a limited idea as to what to look for (like cable connection types).

But as far as specs (i.e. ohms), I'm a bit clueless. I'd like suggestions as to what I should be looking at and why. For receivers and even speakers.

Exactly what do you lot mean by receivers? Is that like the decoder box for your cable or what?

ahh, i have a Denon (hi-fi) Precision Component/AV surround sound receiver

With Bose speakers, I looked up the retail right now on it, 1199.99$ USD...is that good, i mean when we hooked the speakers up, it was awesome sound espically when we got the 2nd one hooked up...we got the speakers from a garage sale, where some chick was gettin divorced, and they were her husbands, worth 250.00 each, i got em for 20 bucks

how good is that
