I'm after something decent sound wise to add to my big telly but its a minefield out there when you start to investigate it, fcuk me looking at some forums you can spend three times as much as the telly is worth just on a sound system which i find a bit crazy, music maybe but not to listen to some movie you have ripped off the internet.

I'm looking for soemthing that can give me that cinema experience in the living room and i don't mean spunk all over the seats, something with a bit of ooomph that won't have the neighbours banging on the wall, I've been looking at getting a western digital HD player as the media player i have cannot play mkv's, which in our terms means HD movies, the WDHD player along with an external hard drive would let me create a nice catalogue of new and classic movies on hand at the press of a button, but i need soemthing decent to listen to them on as i've noticed most films nowadays that are downloaded are nigh impossible to listen to due to them being created for the home cinema market.

I don't want to spend silly money but just want something that will do a decent job for a decent price, even seperates will do considering everything i will be viewing will be from what i have downloaded.

I did create a shortlist but it soon became a longlist with the amount of stuff on the market available at the moment so i won't bother , I'd be very intersted mind to see if anybody has a decent sound system at the moment, I've never had one before so don't worry about the ins and outs of everything , i Just want to know if it does a job and sounds ok, oh and it needs to have dts whatever that is, as from what i've read it seems a necessity.
