Re: Home Cinema System Set-Up/Recommendation
Your TV in that situation from my understanding would only be outputting stero sound not 5.1

You will need to connect the PS3 and your laptop directly to the amp to get surround sound though the thing is i'm not sure what outputs your laptop has.

My suggestion is to have a look at the Sony HT DDWG800 thread in this section as I think it will do exactly what you need and it is also within budget. What you can do is connect your PS3 via HDMI to the AMP then a HDMI cable to your TV. If you want your iPod playing through your amp then I suggest investing in a 3.5" to 2 phono cable and using one of the audio inputs in the back on the amp.
