How deep your wallet goes my friend?

coz I know one state of the art home theatre in Jeant it's all black and it looks damn amazing it plays blue ray with wireless sh!t for 364BDs....

otherwise head to sony HT or panassonic but make sure they all have HDMI... they cost around 200 + -......

it all depends on what you want, Last yearI got the seconed best Panasonic 6.1 for about 200 (not sure could be more or less), it supports almost all formats, many ports in the back you can connect it to almost everything, the sound is amazing and clear.

I will change it to a wireless one soon tho, seemslike this bad boy is going to the living room.

But really, if u dont know much about these things, go to somewhere like plugins or home electronics, there are hunderds of them.

very good, thats why I asked how deep your wallet goes, head to home electronics, there are plenty of styles and options for HT's ask the guys one oriental fella there knows a big deal out of them I forgot his name but check him out he will lead you to a good reasnable one.

tameem, dont waste ur money on a 360 dinar laptop, that just going to be a jerk off, take it from me if u are willing to spend money ona laptop get the best thing around or ur going to waste ur money and then have to upgrade it, for that money I would buy an entry level desktop.

as far as the sround system, If you really want to save cash put the money all together and buy a good desktop with a good ammount of memory and a nice GFX card, connect it to ur TV screen (DVD, Music, watch down loaded stuff) and fit it with a bad ass Altec Lansing 6.1 sround for BD 120.

that is going to be nice.


just tell us exactly what do u want.

something between 120-150 dinars should do you pretty good; this includes a DVD player and the surround speakers. if you want to hear what they sound like, just pop by geant, or the electronics shop in the new seef section. they have ready systems for preview. theyre pretty good for medium to big halls...

I know it's really annoying, here in Bahrain you see a limited styles of logitec keyboards and mouse ( wireless ) but in Dubai GOD DAMN....they have huge amount of styles and options and offers as well.

but honestly I never heard of B&O how good is it???

seems like I'm gonna pay them a visit.

I saw a Harmon Kardon at Geant yesterday, with one hell of a big arse sub-woofer with it. Pioneer make very good ones. So does Sony, and Panasonic. Samsung have the new groovy black on black look, look stealthy, but i dont think they are wireless. If you need only speakers, there are Logitech 5.1 500w RMS at Geant as well. Trust me when i say, that is going to be really loud!

Blacky it's not about the volume, it's the clarity of the sound and the effects that you don't hear on normal speakers.

trust me there is a diffrence.

true if you have spare cash, but generly I think it's a waste of money to normal budgted fellas....

I don't know what more well I get out of them that I wont get with other home theaters....they already give outstanding sound and their looks are not bad for any type of home decoration...

thats only my opinion...I do respect yours as well my friend.

A Yamaha equaliser with Bose speakers shud do the trick Tameem.
The only problem is that Bose speakers are expensive but damn worth the value. They are in the same range as Bang Olufsen and Harmon Kardon.
Get fibre optic cables and now u r all sorted..
