I have moved my surround system to the basement and am looking to put together a compact 2.0 setup in the living room. It needs to be compact and capable of playing full quality bluray MKV files on a 720p display. Right now i have a tv and am looking for the following...
compact PC/appliance for playback. Leaning towards the sage HD box but would really rather have something more versatile in case I get away from Sage...which hasn't happened for any significant time over the last 6 years. Will have to comparable to the $150 price tag on the sage box, so that will be a tough request.
floor standing speakers capable of reasonable sound. I am loosing my sub so I need something that will at least fill out the voice range and maybe a little something tot he explosions. Not looking for fantastic sound, just better than the built TV speakers. Looking at the BIC DV-64 at about $270 a pair[/ur]
Something to drive the speakers with 2 sources (PC solution and Xbox 360). I don't mind using a source switcher if I can keep the devices small. This i have the least amount of ideas on so far but below is a little amp that might work out.
