Best Home Theater System Set Up
Talking with Pete so much about HD audio formats the other day made me start to think about home theater systems and set up and what exactly makes the best home theater set up…
You see, between the first time that I put together by home theater system and now, technology has just changed so much. TV’s have changed, DVD players have changed, receivers and speakers, have changed…
So I’m wondering if I had to start it all now, as in – If I was just getting my feet wet this the home theater game, what would be the first piece to start with in a quest to building the best home theater system set up I could.
I know this is a weird post, and perhaps unlike me, but it’s late so cut me a break. (#);D

I started off with my amp/receiver. That was the first piece and then I built it from there. Most people would pick the display first, I always say go for the best you can afford, and then go just a little bit further.
It’s worth it in the long run

I have a laptop and a really cheap DVD player with a really crappy 7″ LCD screen!. I don’t even own a television or a standalone music player

I don’t have a very good home theater setup. I actually just bought a 37″ LCD Projection TV… so far so good. As far as audio I’ve never had surround sound. Though I will say I have HD Radio in my car and I love it.

@Pete – Judging by the comments here, I think you’re in the lead with the ht system! BTW, thanks for the good back and forth on your site. (#):)
@Forest – You don’t own a TV? I’d die w/o mine! (‘Cause what would I play my games on?!)
@Noob Tastic – Hey, I know about your current TV situation, and I just hope it works out. Maybe the crappy speakers on it will be your catalyst to jump into the world of home theater. *nod*
