Help with purchasing sound system - Blu-ray Forum

Windian · 06-23-2007, 11:40 PM

I just got a PS3 and an HDTV (BestBuy had this incredible deal: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....&type=category ). I really know nothing about audio systems but I figure that I might as well upgrade the speakers on the tv. I can't really find good articles on what kind of systems work better for Blu Ray so if anybody has any helpful links that would be great (articles that explain the basics would be great as well). I'm looking to spend around $200 but I could probably be convinced to spend $400 if you give me some good rationale (:. Keep in mind that my room is pretty small, about 15x20.

I want to get a decent sound system setup before I watch the mouthwatering goodness of Planet Earth in Blu ray.

Man, that's a tough one. You'll probably just have to go with some type of "home theater in a box".

If you can go with $400 instead of 200, do it. Shop around, your not going to get anything spectacular with that price in respect to 5.1! If I were you, I would look at those HT's in a box.....but that isn't going to give you the best.
Since you don't have a reciever, your going to have to go with that. Just look for something with HDMI. I don't know what's out there for your price range, sorry.
