In one of the forums I usually visit somone had a post asking for everyones home theater setup. This is mine:
TV: Panasonic TX-33P100X
Receiver: Kenwood KRF-V8881D
DVD Player: Sony DVP-NS575P
Speakers: Jamo X870 for left and right. Paradigm CC370 for center. Two OEM Kenwood speakers for surround (they came with an older amp). No subwoofer (Jamo’s have 10″ woofers built in)
Universal Remote: Sony RM-AV3000
Tivo: Series 1 Philips with 120GB drive
Future plans:
– Need to upgrade rear speakers to Paradigm ADP-170
– Need to get a Definitive Technology SuperCube Subwoofer
– Need to upgrade my TV to a Sony 34″ HDTV CRT
– Need to upgrade receiver, probably with a Denon

Whats your home theater setup?
Update: I just replace my Kenwood receiver with the Denon AVR-2106 and the Sony universal remote with the Harmony 880.

34 widescreen HDTV samsung slimfit CRT. samsung progscan dvd player/DTS amp home theatre. modded xbox networked in with my PC so i can stream media onto it.
it’s pretty cheapo but decent for a bedroom. i wouldn’t keep my setup if i had a living room to put it in.
I need a new reciever…

i passed by Sony awhile ago, they got some really cheap LCD’s now.. prices starting as low as 429KD for a 26″ and 509 for a 32″
I got the sony LCD Bravia 32 with HD.. it soooo clear! hehehe.. nothing else really since Im watching everything in my bedroom and cant get too loud.. got an old speaker system that I have it hooked up to, nothing special.. but I love that LCD! Best thing I bought yet! But I had to pay for it.. got it for 679KD.. two months ago
My last set up which I haven’t used in two years:
TV: Panasonic TX-29P100X

Speakers: front – Definitive BP6B

Future plans:
Gonna keep the speakers and upgrade everything else once my house is ready. Gonna have a dedicated home theatre room.

DVD Player: LG DVD/VCR combination unit (LH-CX245) with 5 LG speakers (LHS-CX245T) and an LG subwoofer (LHS-CX245W)
Dreambox DM 7020-S with 120GB HD!
I know it’s nothing like yours but it does the job for a small bedroom!
muscati nice front speakers, but you should have gotten the defnitive supercubes to go with it 😀
It looks like you got your tv stand from the one! lol! I saw that one!
yup THE ONE. i fell in love with it when i first saw it and then basically designed the room around it 🙂
Tv:LG 43 inch
DVD: Panasonic DMR-E85H
its dvd recorder with hard disk i can record 72 hours in LP mode.

humax digitial receiver
I have a question about the Dreambox.. I was curious to what it is.. who sells it in Kuwait, does it work in Kuwait? how does the subscription work? Any info would be appreciated! Thanks
i would forget about the dreambox and get the Tivo. Tivo works with Showtime

hey mark how in the HELL! does it get the channel content?!? and do u have to pay the monthly fee or what?
U r giving me hope here!!!!! I didnt think tivo can work in Kuwait! Then I can even record football games and watch em later!!
The other thing that just popped in my head is that the tivo box has an NTSC card in it if I remember correctly. How do you get around that?
Sorry for all the questions, but if its possible I would get the humax tivo I got previously which had 200hr HD and DVD burner so you can burn shows!
well the genius behind that is rami or whom i like to call tivoguy (www.rami.info)
he managed to get tivo to work in kuwait with showtime. and yes you get the guide and everything updated automatically with the daily calls. and yes originally its NTSC but there is a hack for it to make it pal. And the service is free.
it will only work though with tivo philips series 1.
for more info go to http://www.tivokuwait.com or contact tivoguy at rami.info
That is a nice setup. Is the TV HD? I remember how muc I liked the hardwood floor instead of the muffled sound I get from my carpeting
I have a poor man’s home theatre system – an old compaq armada 1750, with an old projector – so something like a 100″ tv on the wall, and use headphones to listen to the sound.
I have my new Home Theater. Receiver Denon AVR2106, speakers Infinity Beta HCS, DVD Pioneer DV600 and TV Philips 32pf9632. It´s great.
Can you guys recommend, where i can pick up some good quallity HDMI cables, Just bought a brand new spanking 60″ Full HD screen:) and blue ray player!!
Thanks in advance
Would be great if you posted an update on how your system looks today – especially that TV!
Hi. Do you know of a company o can use to help set up a home theatre? I have a projector and screen etc.
