Hello

Ive just moved into a new place with a medium-sized room (18 x 14 x
64) with a fireplace in the middle, telly space in the corner and
other half whos given me a budget to play with :)

Ive got Ł2500, which needs to cover:

42 plasma
5.1 speakers (all preferably for wall mounting as stand mounted
speakers will be too obtrusive)
Receiver
DVD player

...Im after something that will show off Sky HD beautifully, and be
fairly future-proof (I havent got an Xbox yet, but Im working on that
;) - it also needs to sound good with straight stereo music source
(its replacing a pair of awesome but rather huge TDL RTL2s)

Do you have any recommendations, either for specific combinations of
gear (so this is really a call for home cinema gurus!), or for really
good retailers who can advise me on what to buy (I live near Swindon
but work in central London)?

Thanks in advance! :)

Felix

My advice get a MK spearer system with the Ł2500 and then save up for the
tv, receiver and dvd, this time next year you should have a great system

So, not an answer to the question asked, and not even remotely useful. Well
done.
