Total noob to surround sound needing help.
I've been looking into home cinema systems for the first time of late and am confussed and frustrated. I want a 5.1 set-up but have noticed that most if not all come with the A/V reciever that has a built in dvd player with upscaller.
I have a Samsung series 4 50" Plasma tv and a Playstation 3. As far as I can figure out, having the PS3 means I don't need an A/V reciever that has a disc reader as the playstation already has a HDMI outs with DVD upscaler to 1080p? This all being correct I assume I don't need to bother with a amplifier that includes any disc reading capibilities but still require an A/V reciever?
Can anyone help me figure out a good system that includes all 5.1 speakers and the reciever that I'll be able to use on the PS3 and for simply watching TV. As the TV is a Samsung it has Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) campibilities so would a Samsung set up be best? i'm looking in the price range of £100 -£200ish. Wattage isn't as big an issue as quality.
Also while I have your attention, when I get the set up, s there any point then in using SRS anymore?
Anyone who helps me out, thank you in advance!
