Sorry, I had to post something OT. Well...it could be ON TOPIC if you're getting something for your R.

I'm trying to get a decent home theater system for Christmas (and my Birthday which IS on Christmas Day).

What do you guys suggest?

 

Bose Lifestyle...the 3,000 + system. I went to the bose outlet store in woodbury commons, ny....man those tiny speakers were f-ing awesome!

 

probably a headache

 

ugh stay away from bose man, it's just the name you buy. And besides for 3k you can buy a much better system...

 

I don't think I'll be getting a $3k system anytime soon as far as gifts go. haha.

I would be willing to piece my system together. I just need more suggestions. I'm going for sound quality with a little punch.

 

Yea, Bose isn't worth the money. I had a job as a stereo repair technician, take it from me .

Just get a nice Pioneer or high end Denon reciever and some nice speakers.

 

ekkk.... as a fellow audiophile, please do not buy bose...

I'm getting laid off....

On the off chance that doesn't happen I'll be getting a Hondata stage 4.

 

no one is posting anything for the ITR.

yoshi - who should lock this now!

 

I'm getting my ITR logo imprinted slippers and pajamas.

 

If I get anything for x-mas for my ITR, I'll be buying it myself, because nobody I know has the kind of money needed for the parts I want Oh well, they say you respect it more when you buy it your self right....?

 

Get a decent receiver (Technics makes a good one, SA-DX940, for ~$300), and then get a set of B&W bookshelf speakers. They may be hard to find, but they are worth it. Excellent sound, good volume, and cheap for what you get. They are also made in England, so you know you're getting a good product.

One big Credit Card bill?

Damm!

Well everything I want for my ITR costs WAY too much.

Can you say Moo-gen??

 

I spell mugen MF-10 You should see my girlfriends face when I tell her I want rim that coast 550 each for x-mas....

 

Closer to being out of debt

B&W are Very very nice speakers, The US Distributor is about 15 minutes from me The best ones are the Nautilus series, Of course theres the Model thats no longer made shaped like a sea shell Mucho Dinero about $35000 each but Sounds Unfreakingbelievable.

If your looking towards Home stereo, go with a Cambridge soundworks system great for the price, Reciever I would say one of the mid or top model Onkyo's

Myself im getting a 60" HDTV Widescreen And New DSS Reciever with HDTV and Tivo

 

i'm saving/buying chit for #234 so nobody is getting anything from me this year

yoshi - who still expects gifts though - juju

 

Don't know surprise me, and please not another lump of coal.

 

PowerBook G4
the Si, is getting a break because noone needs to know how much I spend on it already

for a relatively affordable home theater speaker system I would recommend the Polk Audio RM7500 setup. http://www.polkaudio.com/home/produc...y=2&speaker=32

I have this set. Only paid $1100 for it new and it will definitely play loud and clear with a good receiver. The only other setup I heard that would be better was a B+W hometheater setup named "Prism series". It was about $1300.00. B+W are awesome speakers, even their affordable stuff.

 

I want headers and exhaust, but I dont think I will be getting that for XMAS, I will have to buy that **** myself!

 

I for one am looking for a new header for christmas!! We'hoping to this great header test first though

 

im getting another FD3S (3rd gen RX7). woooohooooo
