Hi all,
My first venture into the Home Cinema section of the forums, and wondered if you wouldn't mind giving me some basic 'feel' as to how to set up a new home cinema??
To give you a basic idea of my current setup, I have a Sharp 32" LCD TV, connected via it's one HDMI socket to an XBox 360 (that also doubles up as my upscaling DVD player)......and that's about it.
I've seen numerous pictures of other people's setups in the 'Show us your 360' threads, and some of the real nice ones have all sorts of speakers, as well as big(ish) silver/black boxes made by people like Marantz/Onkyo etc
There's sections in here for amps, recievers, and I'm finding it all a little confusing.
Basically, I'd like to set myself a project for 2008 to get some sort of home cinema setup.....I read Stuff magazine pretty much every month, and see all sorts of wonderful 5.1 sets, speakers, amps, woofers etc, but have no idea where to start, or what I should be buying (budget will be pretty restricted tbh).
Anyone able to give me an overview of what they would recommend??
Thanks in advance (and apologies for the potential noobish-ness of my query)
