Home Theater System (HTS) Help

38.36.77.147

I am building a new home and it will have a dedicated theater room. I've thought about a projector but the room size has me conserned. The room is 14'X 15' we will be sitting on the long end. I am now considering a Mitsubishi Dimond 73907 73" Bigscreen HDTV Ready. Any thoughts on that model. BTW I am trying to keep in the $13,000 range for the HTS. This will cost around $8,000-$9000.

Now for the hard part. A/V receiver, Speakers, and DVD player. There are Too many options and such a WIDE price range. I've looked at them all including home theater packages such as Bose Life Style 50. I need help.

I know I can get a decent DVD for $800 and an A/V for about $1,200. The speakers are the real kickers. I have approx $2000 for speakers. I've looked at M&K 750THX and was told I needed a Denon 4800 to drive those speaker $2000. This is drive me over my budget by $850.00. I've also looked at Paradigm (splelling?) middle of the line speakers.

One more thing that needs to be considered. I will probably be putting flush wall mount speakers in the family, master bed, upstairs hall, and outside at some point and time. I know Bose has good option for this application (single remote anywhere in the home.

Help, Clarence
