Sound System Recommendation for my Sony HDTV - Blu-ray Forum

vladittude0583 · 01-18-2008, 08:38 PM

Hey guys, I have a Sony Bravia XBR 46-inch LCD HDTV with these specs (click on the link) and I need a recommendation as far as what would be a great sound system to go with this TV at the given specs, but not break my bank account? I have a 80GB PS3 connected to it as my Blu-ray player and I want a sound system that will play PCM, DTS-HD, and all the other HD Sound Technologies, but one that is affordable. I am looking for something around $100-$200?

Did you mean $1000-2000 or $100-200.

I kinda thought the same thing when I read the original. I can't imagine how bad a sound system would have to be to cost less than the transport.

Do you believe in santa, or the free lunch ??

Thats a really nice TV.
I suspect you would need to spend ~ $2000 to match it
~ $400 Onkyo receiver
~ $1000 for 5-7 speakers
~ $600 Sub

sorry.....

I cannot see anything matching that television at that price point. It would not be in good conscience if I did.

The original poster had to make a mistake with that figure.

Sony STR-DG810 ($300+free shipping)

probably the cheapest you'll find that can handle HDMI audio.

Perhaps wait a few months for the Panasonic HTiB
