People still continue to buy the Bose TV Speaker even after we made a dedicated video on it…. To get you to stop, we took to facebook marketplace and gave ourselves the SAME budget and managed to buy a 5.1 surround sound setup with dedicated receivers!
Considering this is the home video section, I thought this would apply to this community. Reminds me of when I had my tiny dirt cheap 5.1 system, which sounded great to me. Especially when playing Bad Company 2 on my Xbox360.
So long as you have the space for a receiver, it should be the first thing anyone buys for home cinema.
It gives you so much flexibility.
And since everyone is gradually upgrading their non UHD ones, you can get a receiver with HDMI switching for very little now.
