Hate to open a thread just for this, but I couldn't find a general audio thread or something to ask
I'm trying to compile a brand new 5.1 home cinema set after our HTIB died, but since it's the first time I'm building something like this, I was hoping someone with more know-how could give me a rundown if this is gonna work. Obviously mainly using it for gaming and some movies, in the living room. Our budget is limited to 800-900, and I found this:
Receiver: Yamaha HTR-3069 (RX-V381) - 219
Front/rear speakers: Dali Spektor 1 (x4) - 99x4
Center: Dali Spektor Vokal - 189
Subwoofer: Yamaha YST-SW012 - 85
TOTAL: 889
My main concern is whether this receiver can power the speakers. The receiver supports an impedance of 6 ohm, and the speakers are all 6 ohm, so does that mean it's gonna work no problems? And I can actually connect all the components to the receiver, there's no compatibility problems there?
And uhh, is this setup logical? The subwoofer is the cheapest component in this set, but the reviews are glowing. Would you say that buying a subwoofer that's cheaper than your speakers is a waste of money?
Really excited to finally be able to game in 5.1 surround, but don't wanna order some stuff and find out it doesn't play well with each other. If someone has better ideas for components, I'd love to hear it! Just keep in mind that I'm based in Europe (The Netherlands) where sadly not everything is available (or way more expensive) .
Thanks gaf!
