Page 1 of HOME Cinema - What do i buy next? Any Recommendations ?

I have a Toshiba SD-3109B DVD Player which i find more than adequate, I bought a Yamaha DSP-A5 amp in the January sales for £220.00 (Bargain) and also bought a Pair of Mission 77DS Rear speakers for £99.00. I prefer to take my time to build up a system. What do you recommend i buy next ... Centre speaker, front speakers or Sub Woofer ?
(Currently using a pair of Kenwood 70W Speakers - not ideal i agree but will have to suffice for the moment

Many thanks for the input.

What are you using for fronts at the moment? I would make getting a decent set of fronts your priority, before worrying about the rest.

Couldn`t agree more.

Try the new Mission m73`s or m74`s for the front channel duties.Inexpensive and good performance.Plus they`ll be a good tone match for your dipole rears.Once you`ve saved some more cash go for the m7c centre to match the floorstanding fronts.The bass on offer from these is more than adequate,so hold off the sub until you can really afford one.Buy the best you can get.The Yamaha ystsw320 is good at £350,but a Rel subwoofer is your best bet.The new q150e is a superb box of bass for £500.Save up and discover what deep bass is all about.

All the best

May I ask where you got the Mission 77DS surrounds from for that price?

Got em at Richer Sounds for £99 think its the 70DS tho? Still £200 anywhere else....

Woah nice one I thought they had stopped selling them.

Are they available on the website?

Cheers

why don`t you have a look?

cheers

I am currently considering the M7DS rears for £124.84 possibly these have replaced the 77DS?

I am currently considering the following setup:

M73 Fronts, M7DS rears, M7C1 - Centre and a Yamaha1000RDS.
Total cost £730

I was hoping to hold off on a sub for the time being and am hoping the above will suffice, however if anyone here believes a sub would make a noticeable difference to the setup above i would be interested to hear.

I would rather buy it alll in one go and try and get a good deal on it all rather than buying the above and then a week later having to go out a buy a sub full price.

Just purchased Mission M74`s form Richersounds inc. 5yrs warrenty for a nice price of 220 got them to match www.hifijunkies.co.uk to compliment my DSP A5. Sounds Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat. Next on the list is centre speaker.

Ant-DVD - I assume you`re getting them from Richer. Anyone know why/how Richer can offer the RXV1000RDS at such a markdown? Is it better than the 620RDS (which is cheaper at Hifijunkies)?
