I had been wanting an Onkyo HTX22HD to go with my PS3 & 37LG5000, but being someone who hates waiting, as nowhere has stock of the Onkyo....
I dropped into the Sony Centre at Trafford and came away with one of these.
I'm ditching the PS3 as I dont use it for anything other than Blu Rays, and wanted a neat system, with not over the top / overly loud, but decent sound, ie. mainly why I went for a 2.1 as I dont want wires everywhere.
Have to say I'm well chuffed with the system, I reckon the 350 player produces a better picture than the PS3, and the sound is really good, far better than I'd expected from a 2.1 system.
I'm sure a full on 5.1 system would blow this away, but for £440, for the full system, I would recommend it to anyone, wanting a good sound experience, without the hassle of a 5.1 system.
Tried it out on Dark Knight, great, this must be the 4th time I've watched it now in about 4 weeks.....
