Here is my dilema. I just bought my house. I have roughly $5500 that my wife has allotted me to spend on my home theater system. So far here is what I have in mind:
Klipsch RF 25 (Front Tower Speakers)
Klipsch RC 25 (Center Channel)
Klipsch RS 25 (Rear Surround)
Paradigm PDR 12 (Pwrd 12" Sub)
Integra DTR 5.5 (7.1 Surround w/ all the bells and whistles)
Sony 60" LCD HDTV
With all of this, including extra parts and materials, I am over my budget by 1k. Would you recommend I lose sound quality and go with something smaller, or do I lose the TV and find something cheaper?
My other option is, I have a friend w/ barely used Definitive Tower speakers, Center channel, and subwoofer. I can offer him to buy those, then buy a receiver, rear surround speakers, and the TV.
Last question. I really like the Klipsch RS 25s. If I did my back up option, can I mix and match components from different companys? Thanks for any and all the help.
