Budget Home Theater Setup

When AV Interiors paid a visit to engineer Jeremy Kipnis’ house, this is what they found. Called the Kipnis Studio Standard, it uses nothing but the 'Budget' components, to making it probably the best HT setup with the budget...

So what’s in there? Too much, really, so here are a few highlights: an 18′ screen, a 4K Sony SRX-R110 digital cinema projector which upscales HD-DVD and Bluray outputs and 16 (sixteen!) 18″ subwoofers.

The whole rig can pump out a total of 11, 315 watts, ranging from a rumbling 10 hertz right up to an inaudible 100 kilohertz. The budget to setup this HT is estimated at around six USD..:) Wow.. BUDGET SETUP Right....hehehehehe...
