Looking For a budget Sound System Recommendation.

bandyb123 · Apr 3, 2014

Hi All,

As title says, I am looking for a sound system on a budget of £100, doesn't have to be pretty I just want to upgrade from my current tinny TV speakers. I do currently have a surround sound system but it only supports HDMI and Scart. I also need it to include
my Virgin Tivo box in to the mix. Due to the budget I was thinking maybe a sound bar.

Here is the equip I currently have:

TV - Toshiba Regza 32CV711B1 (HDMI 1 = Xboxone, HDMI 2 = Sony Home Theatre)

Virgin Media Tivo Box

Xbox One (HDMI in = Virgin Box)

Sound - Sony DVD Home Theatre System (DAV-TZ230)

Any help from some boffins would be appreciated, I intend to use the Xbox to play DVD/Blue Ray so losing the Sony isn't a problem.

:)

Recommendations for sound

Hi .

I use a receiver & speakers, for the immersion for everyone in the room, and it's great for your movies too (I use XBO Media Player A LOT). My setup is a few years old now (Onkyo TX-SR308 & Tannoy 5.1 speakers and subwoofer), but it still works great for
games/movies/TV... Nothing better than playing Dead Rising 3 on XBO with a surround sound setup, it's like being in The Walking Dead ;-).

The only downside for Media Player is, you have to switch the sound from Bitstream to 2-channel stereo for older stuff. We really need auto-switching for different sound options, because manual switching is a real pain.

Kind regards.

For your budget of 100 pounds. I recommend Yamaha YAS-101BL Soundbar. Great Surr. Sound quality for the price.

Since your on a budget, and can not afford a new one, i highly recommend looking into sending it in for repair.

If you are still under warranty it may be free.

Ive heard a few bad things about gaming chairs being uncomfortable.

I would go for a leather recliner and a budget surround sound system if you dont already have one.

Hi,

It's going to be hard to recommend either a TV or a monitor that's 'budget friendly' without a budget to work with. How much are you willing to spend?
