ekÆsine said:As for recommendations I think you should not get too excited about surround sound. Just 2 main front speakers are just as good. I think the reason why you hear so much about dolby digital, DTS, THX, 5.1, 6.1, and now 7.1 surround sound is because it's a way for them to sell you more speakers. Do you know why you need "surround sound"? because I don't. . .
The only recomendation I can give is don't buy blows (BOSE).
hmm, i'm gonna have to say that i disagree with both of those things . . .
1 : i have actually played games such as halo for pc and farcry in 2.1 surround sound, and then the next day, played them on 5.1 . . . they really make a difference . . .
second, i have a bose system that ROCKS! i dunno know if you just heard the speakers, or actually set them up in your house and tested them, cause even in my oddly shaped room, bose really gives GREAT SOUND
and because they dont believe in huge speakers, it saves floor space because i can put them on the wall
in fact, i would say that i have better sound than i do have video! and i have a 50" big screen!
