If you are working with new construction, it really doesn't cost much
to build a proper home theatre and/or listening room. Unfortunately, a
listening room and a home theatre have two entirely different
acoustical needs.
Personally, I see little value in chasing the perfect equipment until
the room itself is somewhat close. A little rule of thumb I like to
use when it comes to both acoustical design/treatment and equipment is
that a 10% financial investment will get you 90% of the way there.
