Ok I'm helping my dad setup a system at his new house. They want decent stuff but would like to err on the side of cheap rather than expensive. What brought me here was the opportunity to get remote suggestions, but all component suggestions are appreciated. What they need:
--Receiver --DVD Player (preferably a multi disk) --RF Universal Remote (components not in the TV room)- IDIOT PROOF is really necessary here as they will not be able to see the TV...so custom labeling and stuff is really a bonus
I don't really know what else they need.
They have a house-wide speaker system but speakers in the TV room that are not in the same set of wires. They'd like to be able to use those for both the main house sound and separately as just for the TV. One guy wanted to set up a whole different receiver for the main house system, but I think we can just run it all through the one receiver and just select the TV room speakers when we want TV. Any drawbacks to this?
