All in one systems with Optical input - recommendations

[edster69]

Hi

Im looking for an all in one home cinema system which has an optical input so that I can connect my (soon to be delivered) SkyHD. I (or my wife has stipulated ) don't want separates. I've looked at the Samsung HT X30R, which appears to have optical input but the only place I've seen it (to touch) is in Currys and asking the sales staff there is a waste of breath.

Can anyone recommend (or confirm if the Samsung can receive optical audio in) an all in one with Optical Input?

Cheers

of the samsungs 25R 30R and HT-THX35R i thought it was only the 35R where you're really only gonna get 5.1 for external sources (ie xbox360, ps3, sky tv as well as dvd)
From what ive read here anyway.

i could be wrong though.

I paid £99.99 now argos decides to drop it to £79.99
Also where do i put my woofer, does it matter or do it need to be in centure of TV screen?

Sound good to me but would like some comments on this set up which has optical in coaxial in and some thing else in, no scart, but i got SKY HD lead to TV, optical from HD box to cinema system.

just put the sub,to either the left or right of where your equipment is/side of the screen.
and as long as you are happy,and it does what you want it to,then no-one else's view matters.
