I'm planning to setup my home theater next year and I would like to start with
Front = 2 RF-82 II
Center = RC-62 II
Sub = SW112
I'm already decided on those speakers but still haven't made my mind on the other speakers, receiver and wires.
the home theater would just be used mainly for movies 80% and music. the room size is 15' x 14'. the room is not pre-wired for home theater so I'll be running wires around for my back and side speakers.
I'm gonna start with 2.1 and eventually expand it to 7.1.
1. What gauge should I select for my speaker wires?
2. I have a short list of receivers.
Onkyo TX-NR828
Denon AVR-X3000
PIONEER VSX-1123K
Yamaha RX-V1075
Harman Kardon AVR 3700
Which do you think is the best for my setup?
And can any of these receivers power my setup?
Onkyo TX-NR727, TX-NR626, Denon AVR-X2000, OR RX-V675
When I was looking for receivers I was just searching for the RMS that's above 100w per channel. I know RF 82 II is 150 W. is that the correct way of looking for receivers that can power those speakers?
3. Which speakers should I choose for the rest of my setup
Side = RF 62 II OR RB 61 II OR RB 81
Back = RS-52 II OR RB 61 II OR RB 81
Can I use RF 62 II as side or back speakers?
Thanks.
