[QUOTE="bbt91945, post: 2620196, member: 710332"] I highly recommend you go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on just about every device you will need. This will also depend on your personal budget. One thing I can tell you is that Bose is not one that is recommended at all and they are overpriced. Sony is overpriced and there reliability is not all there. Most receivers now are 7.1 and the Pioneer and Onkyo are the top brand. Panasonic has had a blu ray disc player being recommended each year from day one. For speakers I would recommend you demo them at your local retail store with your own source of music and listen only to one song on the speakers you are interested in. Look for brands like: Boston, Definitive Technology, Energy, Infinity, JBL, Klipsch and Polk Audio. I have personally used Pioneer Elite and Onkyo receivers for well over 35 years. For speakers Energy, JBL, Infinity, Klipsch, and Martin Logan. For players Pioneer Elite and Panasonic (first generation model BD-10 now over 4 years old and never had one problem. I had purchased 2 Sony tv and the last one the first HDTV in the market for $6.400 and it did not last more than 3 years, also 2 DVD player when they first came out model 7000 and 7700 both over $1,100 each and they also did not last more than 3 years. My JBL speaker was purchased in the 90's, Infinity and Energy in mid 90's, Martin Logan in 2002, Klispch in 2009. Hope this will help you out. [/QUOTE]
