Having recently bought a Sony 40Z4500 screen and had Sky HD installed - pretty impressed so far, i must admit! - I'm looking to add some surround sound capability to my setup. One of the main criteria is that the speakers are unobtrusive - I don't need huge volume or anything, just sound that complements the quality of the picture!
So given that I'm looking to spend up to about £600, my thoughts so far are :-
Sony STR-DH800 amp + Jamo A 102 HCS 5 speakers, or
Sony HT-SS100 combined amp & speakers , or
Sony HT-IS100 combined amp & speakers (tiny satellites about golf ball size).
I just wondered if anyone had any thoughts on those - I'm guessing the Sony + Jamo combo would give better sound, but I'd have to run 'proper' speaker cable around the room, so my missus aint so keen on that! If anyone has used the SS100 or IS100's, I'd be really interested to hear what you thought? Or, of course, if I'm missing the glaringly obvious choice, and there is something else that would do the job far better, please let me know!
As ever, thanks for any words of wisdom
