BDV-N590 or N7100?

Hi

I am buying 5.1 HT system for my new television. Right now I am quite undecided between these two. I am really not interested in those extra features 7100 has to offer over 590 model, like radio,4k...most important thing to me is sound quality and movie effects. Is sound quality on 7100 model worth almost 80% more price I would pay for it over 590 model?
My room is not big, TV is 3m from watching position, and rear speakers would be 1m from viewing position at 90 degree angle(because of the wall, I can't place them further away).
Since BDV 590 has NO auto speaker calibration, what does that exactly mean for me? Is it much harder to do it right, or what?

Another option is ct 660 soundbar, but I would much rather have 5.1 system to maximally enjoy movies!

Thanks for your oppinion!

I have set it up,sounds very nicely! Although, It could be a bit more louder,but when it comes to crash and bang action scenes, it delivers! Since I will be using it an max or almost max sound volume most of the time, will it damage speakers? I mean, it shoudn't have since system allows, but I would rather check to be sure than have broken speakers in few months.

You'll damage your hearing !!  What about your neighbours ?

 

In general, speakers do wear however decent quality speakers will/should out-last the equipment.  If you notice sound distortion at high volume, just turn it down a notch or two.  So from my understanding, go for it, as they have been designed for the system :slight_smile:
