5.1 Surround Sound System

[Steedie]

Hey all,

Looking for a dedicated surround sound system, 5.1. I've been around the major high street stores today but every system on the market today seems to include a Blu-ray/DVD player. I have a fantastic Blu-ray player already, plus I wouldn't want a combination of the two anyway (even though I appreciate it's more convenient), I just want an amp with some nice speakers

Other than that, the only criteria I have are relatively small speakers, I don't want huge stand speakers that a lot of the systems seem to come with now and not hugely expensive, around £200 would be great.

I know £200 won't get the best in the world, but I live in a ground floor flat so can't ever really have it too loud anyway, I just can't stand my built in speakers any longer

As always, much appreciated!

Cheers

I got one of these last month for my living room :

Got my PS3, WDTV Live and Sky hooked up via HDMI, sky needs an optical cable for 5.1 though, works perfect and great sound, wouldnt say it is that loud either, hope this helps, any questions ask away.

That actually looks perfect! I'll look into that, thanks!

Lucid that Onkyo looks good, I know they're decent too, my dad has an Onkyo, a lot more expensive but I know that they make good kit
