45k budget
« on: Jun 15, 2012 at 03:48 PM »
Hi everyone,

how would you spend a 45k budget? I currently just have an LG 42LK450. I have yet to get receiver and external speakers for it. I'm thinking of either getting an entry receiver + a 5.1 speaker system, or a mid-range receiver + bookshelf speakers. (subwoofer, surround channels, center chanel to follow)

which would you recommend and why? please give specific brand/model suggestions.

Thanks!  :)

Kung gusto mo ng maganda ganda na setup with that budget receiver + front and center ka muna then kuha ka ng surround pag may budget na pero kung 5.1 malamang second hand or wharfdale  ang mabibili mo.  ;) ;)

Witches he he he...

DTNS - Get a midrange receiver, pero choose wisely on your bookshelf speakers...Later if you wanted to complete your setup, you can always put your bookshelf as surround and get the best fronts and center you can afford...Syempre of same brand.. Planning your setup is the key..

Unless mayaman ka tulad ni xrampage na may palasyo at madaming pambili nang gears na anytime pwedeng palitan kasi madaming moolah...

Or

Get a simple receiver, 2nd hand will do.. then get the best front speakers you can afford that you think will last with you for 3 years or more.... Then follow mo na yung iba pag nagka moolah ka..

reading the thread, parang ganyan-ganyan nabasa ko doon sa chit-chat ... HTIB initially yung tanong, maya-maya palaki ng palaki recommendations :)

anyway sali na rin ako - I would be spending my 45k for a mid-range AVR (Onkyo 609 or 709, or Denon 1912), then just budget for a good 2.0 system and wait till another budget is available for the center, then for the rear, and last yung sub-woofer ... a good floor stander 2.0 system would give you very good performance on sound quality compared to a cheap 5.1 speaker setup ... yung entry level na AVR naman limited yung power and features.

Marantz NR1200, MartinLogan Motion 20 digital audio setup, and Sony A80J

I suggest pick first the speakers you like then build your system around them.

Ang receiver madaling maluma (yearly nagpapalit ng models) pero ang magandang set of speakers will last for so many years.

With an initial budget of 45k, kung ako I'll get a preowned mid-end receiver and a pair of floorstanders muna. To follow yung sub, center and surrounds.

Not bad din naman ang 2.0 or 2.1 set-up for movies especially kung maganda yung fronts.

Onkyo 609 13k, tsi400 4k, tsi200 3.5k, cs20 3k, psw125 4.5k.  ;) TOTAL 28,000 cashout

May tira pa sir na 17th.........free na two months na amortization mo ;) all new pa! :D

Check mo sir si sights and sounds, pwede swipe lahat yan, 7th monthly for 12 months all in. The good thing is that you enjoy your gears ryt away and spare you from sleepless nyts of thinking how long will it take to complete your home entertainment.

Polk TSi 100 - 8500
Pilyo sub (JBL GT5-12) - 10900
TOTAL: 44400

Ako get an avr with preouts to future proof your system. Look at the 709 instead of the 609. Or look for the yammie 671. I think that's the lowest yamaha model that has one. Regarding the speaker choices, tama si don master paul/billabong. I suggest you audition first and find the speakers that catches your liking. Regarding the sub, just make sure its not the jbl gt5-s12 model, it's fake.

I got to audition the Polk TSi 100 earlier at The Listening Room. they sound pretty good and clear to me. though Ronald (the guy who attended to me there) doesn't recommend using it without a sub if I'm gonna listen to hip-hop, rock, or other things that need much low-end punch.

regarding the JBL GT5-12 in marco's subs, I don't think he'll use a fake on his work. he even warned against JBL GT5 fakes on page 1 of his thread.  ;)

Alam ko hanggan POLK RTI A7 need mo pa ng sub pero ung A9 di mo na need ng sub. Ang masasabi ko lang sa pag setup mo pag entry level ang bibilhin mo panigurado after ilang months mag uupgrade ka.  ;D ;D
