The best way to listening and viewing pleasure?.......HELP!!
This will show you guys how much of a newbie I am, PLEASE be gentle!!Ok,ok, here goes. I am now building my first(semi)suround sound system. My system is as follows, Axiom M80s fronts, VP150 center, QS8s surrounds, no sub. Direct TV PHILIPS Model DSX5353R dss satellite receiver, Sony 43" KP-43HT20 (Thats the next upgrade, a flat screen), Onkyo DV-CP701 6-disc carousel DVD/CD changer, with a Sony SLV-N750 HiFi VCR, all being powered by my just purchased Denon AVR-3805. The question is, for all this equipment, what cableing, i.e.,optical to where, RCA to where, etc.. would be the best hookups for best sound and picture. I am not (at least not now) interested i n playing music in other rooms. I just want to be able to play my music and look at movies in my livingroom, ONE room. So all this talk of Zone 2, 3,, etc.. is very confusing to me. I look at the back of the Denon 3805 and I see Zone 2, 3, but where is Zone 1? Isnt that where I want to look and listen to my music and movies? How would you guys accomplish this. I want to do this right guys so I am counting on a little friendly help, advice,........anything!!
