Damn you

Thinking of setting up a 2.1 or 2.0 or maybe even 5.1 based around those speakers.


No fucking clue what to look for in a receiver though...


Would i even need a sub with those?


WATDO

It really depends how much bass you want do you need a sub or not. For movies you pretty much want a sub, for music it isn't necessary but will help with lowest notes. Dayton sub 1200 (or two for more even sound) for example would be good pair with those towers. For movie usage you want 5.1!

For receiver anything from Marantz / Denon would be solid option, 5.1(2) capable with all the inputs you will need. As those daytons rate at 4 Ohm I wouldn't get the bottom model but something from middle range.

great headphones for the price.

FiiO X3 150$ on buysonic, shipping is like 2$ i think.

Looking to get a new TV when i get my refund. my budget is ~$1000

im debating also between getting a TV for the living room, and a TV to game (xbox) and use my PC on (to watch movies and etc), or just spending the whole budget on 1 nice TV for the living room (and mind you i have a fiance so there will be very little to no gaming done on it).

thinking of doing the vizio 50" P or M series + 32" vizio M series (between wal-mart and best buy they will come out to about $1000 for the M+M series, or $1100 for the P+M series), or just getting the 60" M series.
ive been looking online for deals, but wal-mart has a roll back going on for the 50" P series of $698, and best buy has the 50" M series for $599, both prices either beating tigerdirect, or tiger just doesnt have those in stock right now.
both wal-mart and best buy have the 32" M series for $299 with free store pick up same day, tiger has it for $325, with shipping its $340 and i have to wait, so if i go the 2 TV route ill just pay tax and pick it up same day.

I went to wal-mart the other day and the 50" P series looks amazing, im really digging it, they had the M series but it wasnt turned on, so i didnt get to see that in person.
will not get the 55" P series, do not want the IPS screen with lower contrast ratio, also will not get the 49" or 55" M series because both of those have the IPS screen instead of VA.
was thinking about the samsung 6350 series (50-55"), do not want the lower 6203 series due to how bulky it is (saw this in person the other day) and it looks cheap.

basically asking opinions on the 50" P/M series vs the 60" M series, is it worth it to just get the bigger set for $1K? or opinions on another brand with the same type of quality.

things im looking for:
Fast refresh rate, lots of sports will be watched on this, with as little blur as possible.
low input lag (the P series has a 2.0 HDMI slot that lowers the input lag to 19.3ms, granted ill hardly ever be able to game on it, but I like the option)
motion interpolation is a must
good black and gray uniformity

do NOT want:
edge lit
vizio E series (all sizes looked like shit when i saw them in person, i even tried adjusting the settings personally)
anything under 50" for my main TV, or 32" for my gaming TV if i choose to get 2.
trying to steer clear of the IPS screen

please and thank you

edit: just did some investigating and getting the P series at wal-mart is actually a lower class model (P502UI-B1e). the E is the difference between 120Hz 480 clear motion and 240Hz 960 clear motion (P502UI-B1)
so i guess it would actually be $1200 for the P+M series vs $1000 for the M+M series.. worth the extra $200?

Yeah, I'd definitely make sure to get a receiver that is 4-ohm stable (even though the Dayton specs say the speakers are 4-8 ohm compatible). Speakers can't dynamically adjust impedance, and I don't see anything that indicates the T652 has a physical adjustment for 8-ohm. The Denon AVR-X2100W is a good unit, and is 4-ohm stable.
