Default Wot is it I need to buy to allow me to have surround sound ?

Sorry if this seems like a daft ? >> just that I havent got a clue fo wot I would need to buy.

At the min some how as a friend did it for me I have my TV + kiss player hooked up 2 my stero which I use to lisen to cd`s etc.

any way I have 4 speakers hooked up to the stero working as a amplifier, and the sound is awseome >> I have 2 speakers at the front of my bedroom and 2 behind me.

any way I due to move in 2 a new flat next week and I cant take the stero with me or the speakers as its not mine.

is there anything I can buy which I can use like mentioned above >> or even somethen better >> is it possible to run spekers threw my actuall kiss 558.

any advice you can give me guys so I can have that cinema effect in my new flat watching all the latest divx/xvid movies would be cool !

most apreciate !!

jamie

well...

The kiss is only a player... so you will need a 5.1 amplifier and a set of 6 speakers (1 center + 2 front + 2 surround + 1 subwoofer)...

The Kiss has all connection necessary ...

There are complet set (amplifier + speakers) for nearly every budgets... starting from about 200? (cheaper sets have no value)...
of course...if you have a large room and/or want a perfect cinema sound, you'd better consider higher prices...

If you speak french... go on http://www.son-video.com/Rayons/Home...atAmpliAV.html for amplifiers

and http://www.son-video.com/Rayons/Home...tesAVGrdS.html for speakers

very good french website... full of advices... infos... and good prices for good products

Hi

My tip is

Don´t try the Creative Labs Inspire 5500
Why?
1) The lowest volume u can set is to high in my opinion!
2) The music / CD /MP3 sound quality is to low


I have ordered LOGITECH Z-680 5.1 / THX 450 W RMS instead
I hope this one is ok - everybody recommend it so...

I am not sure this can be suitable for a large room...

good for a bedroom or a small room maybe... but not for a lounge...

It plays on another quality level
