My wife is after me to get smaller speakers in the "TV" room. I've little time to do what I'd like (build) which is ok because I lacking another critical componet as well (talent). So, I am looking a at doing a major overhaul of the room and pull my favorite components (Adcom GFA-535 & GTP-400) into my bedroom or living room with bookshelf speakers, dump my old Sansui SP-5000's and get a HT package for the TV room. Anything high end will be out of the question for several years and what I am looking at are something in the $400-500 range.
The only componets that will be connected will be a DVD player, VCR, Gamecube, and a PC Jukebox I'm playing with. I doubt I'll even use headphones with it as I use cans mostly at work or through the jack on my tape deck which is mostly used as a headphone amp these days.
I'm looking mostly at systems by Onkyo, Yamaha, and JVC and honestly because they come in black (I hate silver plastic and unfortuanately I will be looking at this system more than listening to it, so looks will matter.) As it will be used almost exclusively for movies, background music, gamecube sound, I'm not looking for the ultimate audio experience, just something that hopefully won't make be wanna puke if I put in my favorite Alison Krauss or Earl Klugh CD while doing my taxes or typing a report for work.
So do any of you have any experiece with these packages, (particularly the brands I've mentioned)?
