Looking for some setup advice.

I've got a idea to set up a home cinema system. It probably wont be on the scale of many (Due to money as well as not as much interest currently)

I can either put it on a wall which is behind my computer where space would be more or I can put it by the window where space is limited. Both would provide decent viewing angles.

I plan (hopefully) to get this TV to use

Samsung LE32A436T - 32'' Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

along with this system

Sony HTSS-1300 - 5.1 ch- Home Cinema Kit - Black: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

I currently have a PS3 (In photo) a SD Virgin cable box and a SD dvd player

For photos to try and help my post..



Thanks to anyone that can help!

Re: Looking for some setup advice.

If I were you I would wall mount it (especially as you say you have more space there).

Either way, you have alot of cleaning up to do first my friend

Haha I know, I have a load of unused wires (random cables, plugs, old headphones etc..) all in one huge bundle

Using the wall seems to be more useable option for me due to space.
