Sir I have identical setup as above including subwoofer pero noon tinamaan ako ng upgradititis halos lahat napalitan.
Maganda na itong setup as starter but if I had my way, I would go for 2.1 setup muna na kasya sa budget mo na 50K for speakers alone. Tapos abang lang sa MP mga pre-owned na AVR an magmatch sa 2.1 speaker system mo.
-
sir,ok na rin yan for starter or stop gap measure for a better setup.
pero weakness mo yung small center sa home theater. maliit yung 10cs, try 10cm. importante sa movie dialogue ang center speaker, the larger woofer, the better.
yung av receiver mo, entry level lang yan kaya mahina ang power and worsened by the fact that wharfedale speakers are hard to drive and has low sensitivity. in other words, you cannot get the full potential of the wharfedale speakers.
kung gusto mo naman mas murang good quality sub, try mo marco pilyo sub (12k pesos) with amp4v2 by marco pilyo sa pasay. as to LCR speakers, maganda rin yung anthony audio philippians set sa paranaque/makati cinema square (same price as wharfes).
sa music setup mo: yung 10.2 BS medyo ngongo ang sound (muddy sound) sa mga entry level receiver but excellent when driven by integrated amps.pag my additional budget ka na, try integrated amp for a separate music setup or a tube amp like Sakura amp (5k pesos) modified by rene rivo.
anyway, just enjoy this setup and never listen to other's better setup. otherwise, mapapa upgrade ka ng di oras.hehe :)

medyo nagegets ko na boss salamat . may msyaissuggest ka po ba sakin sir na set up ng 2.1 HT sytem. salamat
-
abang din ako dito..looking to setup din a basic ht system for a small room lang din.
same kasi sa allocated budget ko, kaya looking forward na may mga makatulong dito.
Just lke the thread starter, i am a newbie also.

If HT it should be at least 3.1. Center is very important.. Right now i moved my HT to a differnt location and tinamad ako ikabit ang surrounds so basically 3.1 ako... Upon calibrating everything ok na ok pa din ang 3.1 even without the surrounds..
What im saying, kung kulang ang budget and you want to set a starter HT, go at least 3.1. Saka ka na mag surrounds... Kaya naman ang 2.1 pero iba pa din pag may sariling speakers ang center..

Agree. The center speakers will be the main source for dialogue/voice. I can't imagine HT without the center speakers.
-
pwde mo rin sir i-review yung HTIB para instant may avr at speakers. check mo yung onkyo s3700.
-
huwag madali bro. buo ka muna ng 3.1 or even a 2.1 setup that fits your budget. they are correct, look for a speaker model that has a good matching center channel then work your way around it. for the receiver, since it will eat a big chunk of your current budget, decide between a pre-owned or brand new . they will cost you about the same but their trade off will be between features vs. power. for me, i will rather choose a receiver with basic features but with more power.
good luck and update us about your setup.
-
Kesa magupgrade ka in the future kuha ka na ng mas higher model na speakers at receiver. If new din yung room, iabang mo na yung mga speaker wires para malinis tingnan. IMO, sagwa kasi tingnan ng mamahalin nga setup, kita naman wires at moulding ng surround speakers. ;)

ok sir thanks po . i'll go muna in 3.1 set up and do you have any suggestion or build of 3.1 with a budget of 30k to 40k and ipon mode para sa surround or i'll stick to 3.1 if maganda ang kinalabasan ng sounds . thanks po
-
sad to say sir, pero bitin kasi yang 30-40k budget mo for a nice 3.1 setup.
wala ka ba plano taasan budget? tutal di ka naman araw araw bibili, the home theater setup will take you years to enjoy lalo na yung mga speakers which can last you for more than ten years.
kasi, for a 3.1 home theater setup, you need the following:
1. audio video receiver
2. left and right speakers
3. center speaker
4. subwoofer
5. wires and interconnects(though minimal lang price)
-
sir,with this budget, i suggest the following for a 3.1 home theater setup:
Pioneer 923 receiver-22k
wharfedale 121 bookshelf speakers-for left & right speakers=6.5k
wharfedale 101c speaker-for center speaker=6k
polk audio psw125-14k
total=48k. if you add another 121 bookshelf speakers-for surround=6.5k,total will be 55k for a 5.1 home theater setup.
mura pero maganda na tong ganitong setup. you can test this setup sa Listening Room sa SM Megamall or sa Listen Up sa glorietta,makati.
subwoofer puwede rin yung marco pilyo amp with amp4v2 (worth 12k). paassemble ka kay sir marco sa Pasay near LRT. though not recommended sa apartment or townhouse kc masyado malakas sa low frequency sound effects ng movies.pero ramdam mo yung bass bumayo.best for action/adventure movies.(of course not for porn,hehe)
hope this helps. :)

You should check out this package from Audio Excellence. I think the prices stated are SRP, so if you call them, they can offer a discount.

it means sir ung sub ni sir marco pilyo is good for outdoors lang at not quite good for indoors when watching movies. thanks jan sir sa suggestion mo susundin ko po yan . ung budget sir isstretch ko po para po bang for the buck and good for long time used. maraming salamat sir
-
max ko po sir is 50k
Baka bukas yan maging 60K, tapos makalawa maging 70K. Tapos may magsuggest maging 80K na. Hehehe:).
Ito talaga ang part na pinakamahirap. :)

pwede mo naman babaan sa settings ng AVR mo yung gain/output level ng sub kung masyado malakas. calibrate mo muna before ka manood para pantay pantay ang volume/output level ng lahat ng channel.

tama si doc comet, chief! ska ka na bumili ng sub. you can live without it for the meantime....
saka kya konti sir ang selection naten because the budget....maraming mga HTIB na maganda, pero ayaw nyo naman po. so you will be buying piece by piece. sa experience ko, kht kaunti ho, yung mga reasonably priced na ht speakers, kalimitan may sariling character. so kanya kanya ng appreciation ho yan. ngayon yung mga neutral and detailed sounding ng set eh medyo may kamahalan ng konte. punta ka sa mga audio/video store tapos bigay nyo ho yung budget nyo at siguradong mapapagkasya nila....gudluck sa audition.
-
I think dapat magcanvas ka muna din plus audition. That way kapag may napusuan ka, you can fix your budget. And don't forget to include your acoustic treatment sa future. Ht will also have a big effect sa ganda ng system. Madaming pogi na dealers dito sir who can give you a descent price.

thanks po sir dito sa suggestion mo . question lang po sir it is good for watching movies and in listening to music kasi more on movies po kasi ang gusto kong set up . salamat po :)
-
Tried auditioning it for movies kasi more HT ako than music, satisfied ako sa sq nya. Sufficient yung bass nya kasi bass reflex ang enclosure. Try mo rin iaudition sir, baka iba ang pandinig mo. How big ang room mo sir?
-

Yes sir. Like I said madaming poging distro and dealers dito. Hindi lang ako pwedeng magsuggest kasi it would be a shameless plug.

nice sir nelson, ;D
@chizdog, ayan sir oh yung kausap mo. ;D

small room lang sya sir ehh . to estimated it would be 10 ft x 20 ft .
-
parang ganito din naranasan ko.. una wharfedale setup kc mura tpos naging polk then mission ngayon ayun Golden Ear na nabili... from 50k budget tumaas ng tumaas..
-
ang tip ko: build your HT slowly. wag magmadali para di sayang ang pera. ;) :)
-
bili nlng ng hi-end dun din naman ang punta hehehe
-
another tip sir: avoid buying 110 volts na audio gear.
marami na nadisgrasya jan, nagkamali magsaksak si inday or your visitor relative or family member nagsaksak sa 220v outlet.
and most of all, the resale value is very low in case you want to sell them in the future, kahirap ibenta ng 110v na audio gear.
