Hi! This is my first post and I found this website searching for information regarding a new home setup. I will soon be building out my basement and wanted to have everything predetermined so as to make installation and quality as optimal as possible.
Here is my basic list of questions:
1. I am looking for a great audio setup to complement a great tv. Here on this website it seems like speakers and such revolve around listening to music only. I have found a couple of distributors where I live (Denver) that appear to be great, but again, they sell speakers, tuners, amps, preamps, etc. But no mention of a tv. So, my first question is this website a good source to begin looking for what I mentioned above?
2. Assuming my first question is yes, then my next question is whether it is worth it to invest a lot of money in speakers that will be used primarily watching tv. I have three young children and watching movies and stuff with a great rig is a vision I have had for a long time.
3. If 2 is yes, then would it be safe to assume that one of the distributors that sells high end speakers, etc. here in Denver would be able to install my entire setup? Or would I need to find a home theatre setup guy to install the equipment I bought from the speaker guy? Essentially, I want to make sure that if I am going to invest a big chunk of change for a system that I get high quality people to do the job. It seems like there are a lot of choices, but the main problem I am finding is that the guys that are good at installing and prewiring a setup sell average equipment at best. I.e. I could find their stuff at Best Buy. And then the guys selling the good stuff make no mention of installing tvs. TVs aren't even mentioned on their website!
I think that is the basic gist of it. My guess is that once I find the right people, figuring out the right materials will pretty easy. Thanks for the help!
