I would suggest the Def Tech with a good receiver and DVDP. they generally make awesome HT.

Aego is hooribly overpriced (But I think they do not need a separate receiver and can accept direct connection from a DVDplayer).

Hi Guys,
A little insight in your responses will be much appreciated.
for ex: if you say "Choose Def tech pro cinema 800" do let me know why? May beyou feel the package with Marantz is musical enough for my 60/40 requirementetc...

After a lot of research and as my requirements were 60% musical. I decided I would do a step by step approach to my HT purchase (Actually a couple of dealors recommended the same to me too)

Anyways, I bought the following

Av Reciever: Denon 2307
Speakers: KEF IQ5

I came very close to buying AE speakers along with Marantz but backed out at the last moment.

My entire purchase including QED silver anniversary Sp cables and QED Optical cable cost me 77k @ Pro-fx.

Thanks for all your inputs.

Regards
Vivek
