Lookin like this as of today
Here's the link for the receiver DENON AVR-X3000 7.2 4K Networking Receiver AirPlay
Here's the thing, do i really need a receiver with Wifi, Bluetooth, all these extra features that I'll probably never use? Probably not, just an HQ unit that just puts out great, quality sound and none of that other unnecessary shyt. Even if its an older model. I know I may be held back by my speakers but at the moment, something that will pair nicely with them will due.
'ppreciate the help.
First off shop around breh. You can get that receiver for way cheaper. Here it is on NewEgg for $500. I usually check Google Shopping first when buying electronics. I'm not familiar with Pioneer speakers so I'm assuming you've done your research. I have Polk speakers and I like them a lot. I know Klipsch is a good brand as well.
But if you get the receiver from that Amazon link you should be around 2000. Throw in a console if you ain't got one and setup Kodi/XBMC and you finna be eatin real good breh
Speakers halfway off the tabletopFound a picture of my first setup. I remember hooking up the 360 to my LCD and seeing a game in HD for the first time

slickdeals +avsforum is the GOAT combo if you have time to shop and aren't trying to do everything in a weekend.

first thing Id do is grab a TV and go from there...do it piece by piece when you have extra cash if need be. Hit up friends and fam see if anyone has an extra couch or some furniture.I got an extra room in my new crib. How should I go about this?
PS Having a place to seclude myself while the whole family was here for the holidays

I got an extra room in my new crib. How should I go about this?
are you talking about a basement or a room on the main/second floor? how much space we talking?
when we moved, I took both of our couches and put them in the basement along with my tv, and our old kitchen table since it doesn't match the floors upstairs.
we still had a sectional for our living room and put a new table in our dining room and new table in the kitchen.
so in the basement, I have two couches, and a table with 4 chairs for board games and cards and what not. and in my office space, i have a desk with an office chair along with bookcases and shyt.
so I didn't have to buy anything new. I'm looking to get a new entertainment center and bluetooth receiver to replace the one I currently have tho.
2nd floor, guest room but Ima use it for my shyt lol
