Question about overall set-up. - Blu-ray Forum

Irelandian007 · 08-20-2007, 01:19 PM

Hi Guys - I'm new to all of this and after reading through some of the posts today I'm even more confused than I was at the outset - not anybody's fault, just finding it hard to get my head around all of this stuff.

Anyway I have a Wharfedale 20" HD TV (small in comparison to some of the monsters people seem to have).

I'm going to buy a PS3, have already purchased the HDMI -> HDMI cable to connect the PS3 to the TV - TV only has 1 HDMI slot.

Sound on the TV is not great so I'm looking to boost this but not sure how I go about this?? Do I need a standalone system and how does this work when playing blue ray discs via the PS3?

At the moment I have boosted the audio via my PC using some RCA connections.

Thanks in advance.

You can buy a good home theater in a box and hook that up to your LCD tv so that the sound comes out from your PS3 to the system.

Can you recommend any? I don't need a player then, just the subwoofer and speakers?

How do I connect the PS3 to the home theatre system?
