What is the best setup for my italian living room?

[abduco]

Hi everybody,
I'm planning to build my first 5.1 HT. The room that will host my setup has the following dimensions:
29,52ft X 13,12ft X 8,86ft (10m X 4m X 2,7m).
The system will be used to play movies only (i don't care the "musical potential").

 

My first build included:
Denon AVR X2300W + (2) RP-250F, (1) RP-440C, (2) RP-150M, (1) R-112SW

 

Later I thought that the floorstand speakers (RP-250F) would be setted to "small".
In this scenario, the SUB will be able to provide enough "juice"?

 

So I thinked this alternative configuration:
Denon AVR X2300W + (2) RP-160M, (1) RP-440C, (2) RP-150M, (1) R-115SW

 

In your opinion, what is the best configuration for my living room?
Do you have any advice?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings from Italy!

I would say setup 1 with setup 2's subwoofer. For the size of that room - I'd go no less than an R-115SW if you're staying with Klipsch subs. I'd actually recommend two of those subs for a 30ft x 13ft x 9ft room.

Thanks for the advice! Two SUBS are really too much for my budget .

The two RP-150M are fine as rear speakers?

Yes they will be fine.  I prefer the bipolars like the rp250s or older rs52s as they are really powerful and surround you a bit more for movies.  But in one theater i use the cheaper r15ms and rhey work very nicely.  Fronts center and sub are much more important.

Bonjourno!

 

I also think you need more subwoofers, to get the loudness and low distortion you will want.   Two 12" subs will probably perform better than one 15".  "U571" and "Transformers" NEED big subwoofer performance.

Buongiorno a te amico mio!

 

I know, I completely agree with you!
But, you know, I'm saving money for my new Ferrari

Joking aside, if I was to spend some money, I would like to invest in a new AVR: the Denon X2300W doesn't have pre-out and it delivers only 95W per channel.

I'd take the towers over the bookshelves for ht use in this instance. If music were the case I'd say get the bigger 160 as the horn is larger than the 250f. 

 

Yea two subs are better than 1. Yes in most cases the two 12's would be more beneficial than the 15". HOWEVER I've owned all the rw series subwoofers and the R-112 is kind of a joke. Not musical at all and doesn't dig deep at all. Now the R-115 on the other hand is pretty good. Best one Klipsch has made in a while for sure.

 

so I'd get the 250f towers, 440c, 150m, and then the R-115.
