At the moment I have my hifi kit in my bedroom but after not being able to use it at night or any other unsociable times I've decided to put it in a heated room in the back of my garden. The room is 5mx3m and I'm basically going to turn it into my own home cinema.
A 32" or 37" is more than big enough for the space and at that size I won't need 1080p but will be using it as my primary monitor for my HTPC. The only feature I know I'll will need is 1:1 pixel mapping but is there anything else I should be looking for? At first I'll be running DVI to HDMI but as I think my 7800gtx is broken I'll probably be replacing it soon.
I would love to get a 5.1 setup but can't really justify it in such a small space and my 2.1 bookshelf setup should be more than enough
I also have a spare Kenwood Trio KA 5700amp that I found but some speakers for it and have no idea what to pair up with them. I would gladly go second hand for some vintage speakers to pair up with the amp or should I get some cheap newer bookshelfs? It would help me loads if someone has any reccomendations. The amp is rated AC240v 50/60Hz 350w.
