Plus the tech isnt all there yet |
5K? Are you crazy? I bought a real surround system with jbl studio s36 bookshelf speakers, a center channel, a 12'' 500w subwoofer, an Onkyo receiver and a 36 inch HDTV seven years ago for 3.5K. Seven years ago!
Equivalent speakers haven't really dropped in price much, but a modern receiver is cheaper, and TVs are much cheaper.
I think the audio difference is significantly larger than the video. I can definitely notice the difference in resolution, but it's not that big of a deal to me compared to the theater-like audio.
