So I'm in the middle of remodeling my living room. I'm down to working out the audio, and trying to figure out how to best accomplish what I'm after. Not going for perfect, just need something nice enough. For a quick overview, I'm going from a 75" Samsung with a Q60T soundbar/"sub"/(2)surround, to a 120" projector with something new for the audio.
Looking in the $2k-ish range, overall. The bar I have now sounds alright, but the bass is lacking and you can tell it's a $400 soundbar vice more of a flagship-level model. So again, looking for something nice, but not audiophile-level scrutiny.
Â
Here's the layout, for reference:
Â
Â
Options so far:
1) Nakamichi Shockwafe 9.2.4 Ultra EARC (Bar/(2)10" Subs/(2)Surround/(2)Rear)
2) Samsung Q990C (Bar/Sub/(2)Surrounds)
3) Klipsch Flexus Core 200 (With added sub/(2)surround)Â
Then I got to thinking that maybe I could pull off an a/v receiver setup instead of a soundbar. Which is where I start to glaze over a bit, just from all the options available and not really knowing what is and isn't worth a shit. Video processing isn't really a needed thing, plenty of inputs on the projector. It might be useful down the road. This would increase the cost a bit, but I could also piecemeal the pieces together while using some stuff I have on-hand in the interim. (I have a good klipsch sub, and (4) so-so surrounds, and a meh center.) I could start out with a good center, maybe a pair of floors for front left/right. Then use the sub and 2 surrounds I already have to start.
Now in the image, the only issue I have is how I would do the rear pair. I'm not keen on running wires, and doing something "permanent" like that. Surely there would be a way to run a wireless transmitter for those?
I think my end goal would be a floor speaker on the left and right of the screen, up-firing speaker on top of each floor, a center channel, sub (maybe 2), then a pair of surround, and a pair of rears. Klipsch seems to have a good offering, and a good place to start.
However, if using a transmitter isn't an option (and some type of amp for each speaker, I'm assuming) then I'll just go soundbar and work with that one way or another.
So I guess the tl;dr of it all is this: Is there a way to have wireless rear speakers (up to 4) with an a/v receiver setup?
My experience with any of the wireless rears has always been very inconsistent.
1) the speakers you’re getting with a surround bar setup are not great quality
2) power is still a problem unless they have some good amps built in.
3) I would rather spend more on the front 3 and just not have the surrounds because of the aforementioned probs.
My current setup is a 3.1.2. DefTech ST-L fronts and mythos10 center. I have no desire or need to add surrounds until I can wire for them.

Shitty bunt JT

What the fuck is that shit? If you’re going to move a game mid game then don’t put us on national. Just put it on LHN.Â

Where did our game go?
Why am I watching nba playoff pregame? For a game that is currently ending on espn 1

Borba looking like he should have been starting earlier. Certainly not worse than PB and makes us better defensively for sureÂ
-
Why guys? Why do we do that
-
And that’s why you hit the fucking fastball JT. What a horrible at bat
-
Just now, ClubWhatever said:
Whole team doesÂ
It’s so strange to see from a Texas team after all the Augie years.Â
Bases loaded with 1 out and we take a high fastball for a strike. Our approach at the plate makes no fucking senseÂ
-
Not a huge fan of the safety squeeze here but with Dee I get it. Takes off the DP and he’s fast enough to beat it.
Too bad he sucks at buntingÂ
-
Apparently Borba just needs letter high fastballs to get some hitsÂ

14-4 when scoring first. I dunno that I would have believed you that we scored 1st in 18 games.

LOL two different purples for TCU's unis & helmets. Weird.
I have trouble passing judgement on that based on how often it happens with ours across all sports. And the dramatic change in orange we’ve had over the past 20 or so years.Â

Not sure why we haven’t bunted against the shift more often this year. The number of times we ground out to short playing 2nd is infuriatingÂ
