Not sure if this would be the place to ask, so if I'm in the wrong, please redirect:
I'm looking into a 5.1/7.1 system for my PS4/movie-watching. I currently live in a small bedroom (about 8-10 feet from my couch to my TV) and will be for some years as I'll be in grad school, so I'd need smaller speakers that I'd either put on skinny ass stands or, more likely, mount to the wall. I already have a hi-fi system for audio so I wouldn't be playing music or anything through them, but that also takes up quite a bit of space, so the smaller the better.
I've read the Wirecutter and CNET reviews and it seems like receiver-wise and it seems like the Yamaha RX-V379 is more than sufficient for my needs, but if I'm spending money I do want to do it right (not spending a grand on a receiver though...yet). Speaker-wise, where should I be throwing my money? My budget's somewhere in the $500-1000 overall, but the cheaper the better as I'm trying to save some money for grad school.
Again, if this isn't the right spot I apologize, but please feel free to redirect me to the proper thread(s).
Might want to consider just getting a sound bar. You certainly can't mistake them for a good 5.1 setup but they are more affordable and friendly to small places.
I want to take new pictures of my setup! It's just that I keep moving stuff around and getting stuff.
