Surround sound for home

[francoisvv77]

I also got those X530's

I check there is a slightly newer version, the X540s, not sure what they're like tho

For value I'm extremely impressed with the performance of these speakers, although they in no way compare to the X5000 series (these are amazing!)

I have the X530, and I don't have any complaints! Doubt if I'd go any bigger than that, coz I don't think me neighbors would appreciate...

[eek]

now this can be a useful thread as I'm also looking to upgrade my sound at some point...preferably in a way to accommodate my xbox.

I've got a 6.2 Sony solution with amp and all. Works brilliantly. Like being in a theater, at home

They are literally the same as the X-530's but with a wired remote and squarer, more tradition-looking speakers. I've got them and compared them to a friend's X-530's and the sound quality seems to be pretty much identical, so no upgrade in that sense, but the wired remote is sweet. It has a long cord, a headphone output (but no mic unfort), volume and bass knobs, and a 'matrix' button that converts 2 channel into 5.1. They are only very slightly newer, had mine for at least a couple of years.

I have a el cheapo LG component system 6.1 with a mede8er M/player and a 42" lcd. With twins of 2 and a half in the house, listening to music and movies very loud is out of the question....
