Default Home cinema 5.1 systems...

Can anyone recommend the best place to get a kit from please? Currys and Argos is a no no, ebay a no no, Maplins a no no, looking ideally for a Samsung set up.

Saw an awesome one in PC world today, but they dont sell it seperately from the tv package

Any ideas at all please????

That deffo sounds the one. The one at pc world was black along with the bottom arrow shaped area.

The samsungs look nice tho, mines the black surround with silver arrow shaped bottom front area.

I could in all honesty be tempted with the full package that PC world are doing.

But there is very little media with 7.1 audio tracks on it still. So it's all well and good having a blinging 7.1 home theatre set up, but no good if 99.9% of films watched only have audio for 5.1 - makes 2 speakers very expensive ornaments
