Just need £500 for two monoblocks (TNX Ultra spec) and £600 for two rear center channel speakers.

Nice....

Well I have had for the last 3 years the Scan SC2000 DVD player now superseded by this

Coupled with the Scan AV6 6 Speaker Theatre with Dolby and DTS.

At the time osome 3 years ago I got that for just under £400.

But if you look
AV6here

The you will see even at todays prices you can pick it for £174 for the speakers etc and £73 for the DVD Player bringing it in under £250 for the lot.

The DVD has been faultless and plays anything you throw at it and no problems up to now with the AV6 speaker system.

IMHO forget the run of the mill DVD players... Kiss DP-450 is the DVD player for me.

Plays ANYTHING you want to throw its way. including DivX and XviD

the panasonic's a good solid system u could do a lot worse, still think it would be better long term to get a separates system for upgrade potential.

Hey Sony AMP is good, mine does DD 5.1/6.1 and DTS 6.1 too hehe I only got the 5 speakers. No money for Sub or extra speakers. The Speakers are Tannoy from www.hifibitz.co.uk. That is a VERY good company.... no complaint from me.

Re: Surround Sound system

to the forums

When you say you can't get it to work, do you mean no sound at all or no surround sound?

Surround sound depends on the transmitted signal so whether it 'works' or not is down to what exactly you're watching...
