Looking for some sound

[funkyCable]

Hi

I've got a 37inch Samsung LCD and want to get getting some more bass and possibly 5.1. I want to connect my xbox360,v+box tv. I've only got a budget of £50.

Any Ideas? I'm really new to this audio scene.

For that ammount of money, your best bet would be to look for a set primarily for PC but with an optical in imo

For that price you aint gonna get anything capable of kicking out 5.1 DD. Sometimes you will find some crap cheapos at argos that claim to be good but they aren't so don't waste your cash.
There is very very little 5.1 on the V+ so wouldn't worry about that.
The best thing you can do is find a DVD/Home cinema system that delivers 5.1 from DVDs and connect your TV to that.
You will not get 5.1 from your external kit but it will make them sound 100x better than the crap speakers flat panel tv's have inside them.

It just so happens that i have such a system for sale! fancy that. It will shake your house down! A very good system with 5.1 on DVD and pro logicII on other sources.
the down side is that £50 is still a little short. I paid £200 for this and i am looking for £90 plus postage. It is 8 months old.

Could you not for the moment hook it up to your hifi?
That will kick out more sound.

And save up a bit more and then get yourself a 5.1 setup.

I dont have a hifi cus I have a pc thats got all my mp3s on and I play my mp3 through my xbox when I'm playing games so I would prefer not to get a hifi or a 5.1 package thats got a dvd player cus I have the 360 to play dvd's. I not to to concerned about the 5.1 just better sound than the standard crap flat panel speakers

not being funny mate but for that price dont bother save up until you can afford a better set up that will work.
