audiowarrior Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Hi guys, I am ordering this: - R-51M 5.1 Home Theater System - Includes (1 Pair) R-51M, (1) R-52C, (1 Pair) R-41M, (1) R-100SW What I enjoy doing: - Watching movies via Plex, TV, and streaming - Watching TV shows on Netflix and HBO - No gaming - Not likely to upgrade to 7.1 Budget: $300 - $400 1. What kind of receiver can I get for this 5.1 system? 2. What kind of speaker wiring should I get for this? I don't understand 16 and 18 gauge wiring. 3. Random question, my room has a lot of wooden paneling on the walls. You think I'm going to get ear fatigue with these speakers? 16 x 13 room. Will mainly play volume on medium. Thank you so much!

rebuy Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I'd use 16 gauge wire--18 is too small Look at these refurbished receivers--I bought a Denon, works fine and saved me money. Within your budget. https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/denavrs930h/denon-avr-s930h-7.2-ch-x-90-watts-a/v-receiver-w/heos/1.html https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/pionvsxlx302/pioneer-elite-vsx-lx302-7.2-ch-x-100-watts-a/v-receiver/1.html Take a Peek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkingEdge Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Hello, Are you near any Fry’s? I got a Denon x2500 for about 400 (intermittently on sale with promo code). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiowarrior Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Thanks guys! I hear good things about Denon. My only concern is their support, I saw a few reviews that said Denon’s support is nonexistent and horrible. Not sure if you guys experienced this? Hopefully I won’t need them.

ricktate Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I vote for Integra easier to set up and to customize also this one has phono input. My son has Denon and his has less options on set up he does not like it.l https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/intdtr404/integra-dtr-40.4-7.2-ch-x-110-watts-thx-a/v-receiver/1.html Then order this roll of wire https://smile.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Speaker-Wire-14-Gauge-Oxygen-Free/dp/B0758CSSF2/ref=pd_rhf_ee_s_rp_0_13?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0758CSSF2&pd_rd_r=60ec41d4-dd96-4c5a-9179-a2535930dcef&pd_rd_w=s2sDe&pd_rd_wg=thOQx&pf_rd_p=f4c63947-4e8b-4aeb-a925-1d4e1a211124&pf_rd_r=C689K0FSV61XSBMRFYVW&psc=1&refRID=C689K0FSV61XSBMRFYVW Then if your mounting surrounds on wall get these if they are not to heavy https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005BV0FHG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And dont forget one of these...https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002YDZWO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
