Will this work with my ps3? - Blu-ray Forum

Try to find one without the DVD/CD player, you already have a PS3. If you look around, there will be a sub-$200 5.1 system with receiver and 6 speakers. Make sure it has an optical in. (Coaxial digital won't do any good for you since the PS3 doesn't have a coaxial digital out.) They won't be great, but with that budget, you can't expect much.

The Fry's around here have 5.1 systems starting $299 and up. Sometimes the $299 will do down to $199 on sale. That's when you need to get yours.

Amazon will sometimes have good deals too.

Really important to remember that you MUST have optical inputs in order for the PS3 to output sound to the receiver.

only $20 more than your budget, with Optical in. It's not going to be the best but it's something.
