I am looking for a 5.1 system that I can connect to my PS2 and Xbox. I want to spend around £250 but I do not know what to buy, can anyone tell me the best system I can get and where to get it. Thanks.

If its for a small room then try out the yamaha tss 1, whick is a 5.1 speaker, amp, and decoder system that decodes dolby digital or dts. This can be found at qed-uk.com for £150.

If its for a larger room try out the vidologic digitheatres, which too are 5.1 speaker, amp and decoder sets. The regular Dolby Digital only version costs about £200, wheras the Superior DTS version costs about £300.

All 3 Systems are excellent, but the digitheatres are a lot more powerful (not be mention larger) than the yamaha system.

Hope this helps.

This is what I'm looking to get myself. It's £300, but I've checked up on it, and held the speakers (weight) e.t.c. and it seems pretty substantial.

(remove those damn spaces, there's four!)

I know it's more than you wanted to pay. But if you are looking to spend £250, you might as well go that little bit extra.

If anyone else has any opinions about that one, would you let me know please? I'm a bit new to this stuff, I want to get a good kit for my Xbox and PS2.
