Connect with appropriate cables, hook up an Oppo BDP-83 for excellent Bluray/DVD/DVD-Audio/SACD playpack
You're on your own for the screen  |
Excellent, I see you did not buy into that "center" speaker bunk. Give me three three matching speakers or give me death!
I was planning on using the PS3-Slim for my Blu-ray needs since it can now bitstream DTS-MA, but I am rethinking that since I'd like to have DVD-A, SACD capability.
Receiver wise, I'm looking at the Denon 4311ci (~130 watts/channel)
For speakers I like the
Axiom M80's for fronts and center.
QS8's for the Surrounds and of course a
subwoofer
The screen will be a Center Stage from
Seymour AV. Acoustically Transparent with masking panels to covert my 110" 16:9 screen into a 110" 2.35:1 screen as needed.
A
Panasonic PT-AE4000 projector to help pull off that trick until I can add an anamorphic lens.
Cables from
Blue Jean Cable.
And if you come out and help me build it, I'll play the 1812 concussion section for you!
