any ideas??
I have very limited knowledge whens it comes to home cinema systems, i have a budget of around £400 - £500 pounds to buy the set up, any advice you could give me would be geatly appreciated - its to be linked with a sony KDL-40W2000 LCD TV & my PS3. HELP!!!!!!!
Im unsure whether to get an Av receiver and speakers (is this possible with this budget??) something along the lines of a sony DCAC system due to the ease of set up?
or just a cinema surround kit, i dont want a kit with a DVD player ideally??
Andy, cheers for that, after searching through the information you have given me i am finding the prices a lot cheaper, mayvbe you could advise of a kit for around £650 as i think some of th kit will be cheaper.
IE Yamaha's YSP-900 (£600)

If you don't want a DVD player, you could go for the Yamaha AV59 system (£250 all in), comprising the RXV-359 AV receiver and a full set of NSP-110 speakers, complete with centre speaker and 50W active subwoofer.
Alternatively, one of our favourite budget AV amps at the moment is the Onkyo TX-SR505 (£250), to which you could add some stylish surround speakers such as KEF's KHT-1005 package (£300). It might cost more, but it will give better performance than the AV59.
The third alternative is a digital sound projector such as Yamaha's YSP-900 (£600). This is a single speaker bar with built-in amplification that simply hooks up to your PS3/TV and is designed to sit under your screen. It bounces sound off the walls of the room to give a pseudo-surround effect, and is pretty effective, although can't quite match the performance of a full 5.1 system.
