What speakers should I get for my tv?

I just recently bought the LG 55LW6500 TV. What AUDIO RECEIVER and SPEAKERS should I get? Any recommendations?

  • Btw, I don't know if this information is important but I will be using a PS3 to watch blu rays with my current setup. I would like to spend under a grand for both items if possible. I am currently looking at the Onkyo TX-NR609 for the receiver and the Bose Acoustimass 6 Series III for the speakers. Any advice is welcome~

  • Answer:

    As the others have pointed out, Bose SUCKS. Google -Bose sucks-, and you will have all the evidence that you might want to that truth. Next, you can get some good deals on Polk speakers through Amaz*n.com, such as Monitor 50 floorstanding speakers for $100 each, Monitor 30 bookshelf speakers for $125 a pair, a PSW10 sub for $100, and a CS10 center speaker for $130. That's $555 for a 5.1 set of speakers, leaving you about $445 for a receiver. Your chosen receiver comes from Vann's for $377 including shipping. Total $922, and the remaining $78 would be good for speaker wires, a sub cable and any other connectors that you need.

Two words... BOSE SUCKS!!! I would highly recommend doing more homework on the subject before buying. If you don't already know that Bose is a terrible brand, then you obviously haven't done much research so far. Onkyo isn't a bad brand, though I think their quality has been slipping for the last few years. But seriously, pretty much any speakers are better than Bose. You can literally buy radio shack speakers that have better frequency response than Bose acoustimass. It's Bose's price alone that suckers fools into thinking they got a good deal.

The Onkyo 609 is good you may also want to look at the Denon AVR 1712 depending on what features you like or the Onkyo RC 360 which is essentially the same receiver as the 609 but sells for a little less sometimes...speakers I would take a look at the Boston Acoustic cs 2310 or the Energy take classic 5.1 or Energy Micro 5.1 for better sound or the Polk Audio RM 6750 for about the same amount of sound as the Bose but for a lot less money....Bose are OK just way over priced for what you get.....
