Here's my surround sound PC setup which uses Q Acoustics 1010i 5.1 speakers with a Yamaha RX-V365 receiver.

Sorry about the fuzzy pictures but I only have a phone camera.

Different! I would consider a nice recliner chair to chill as well as the upright office chair when you are on the computer.

Re: Budget bedroom setup with PC

What a coincidence, I had the same thought just a couple of days ago!


Most of the time this setup is used as a computer or hifi  so that chair is usally fine. I do still watch a bit of TV and the occasional film though,  so it would be nice to have an upright office chair that can also be folded back and has a footrest too.
