    As with crazy_boy stated, first to do is to utilize your freebies muna. Namely, the typical home theater "package" that comes free with your TV purchase.

    But if you want to step up, purchase a separate receiver and speakers na for the TV. If you're space-saving, sound bars are selling like hotcakes nowadays. There's a lot of products depending on your bduget naman. While crazy_boy suggested the SB400, sa SB100 naman ako at Php13k SRP (non-discounted).

    However, the thing with sound bars is that.. kahit ano gawin mo, they're still very much limited by their physical dimensions. So if you want to future proof yourself, just get a receiver and a pair of bookshelf speakers. Truth be told, 6 1/2 inch speakers with a ported box (as with most bookshelves are) would more than appease most people and you might not even need a subwoofer.
    jhnkvn, i auditioned the SB400. maganda talaga yung sound quality. how is it with SB100? I am contemplating on getting a receiver (HK AVR270) + 2 speakers. basically 2.0 system. is it advisable? what speakers do you suggest?

    Ok sana Sanyo pero since their merger with Haier di kaya magkaproblema sa servicing in the future?
    john, si arthur taga SnS. my advice, after you get the price list, call them to reserve. sometimes nauubusan sila ng stocks. and if naka reserve ka then pagpunta mo wala pa, you get discount pa to make you happy

    Ye. Nipost ni Sir Vic ang number ni Arthur din so di na siguro sya ganun ka surprised kung may biglang magtetext sa kanya

    Sana no major diff in price before and after Christmas. Sana applicable to damit and Christmas decorations lang yon :hysterical:

    The thing with 2.0 systems is that to get imaging correct, dapat tama positioning yun speakers mo so what you hear really is stereo (or left+right). In a 5.1 setup, this is less critical because most of what you hear comes from the center speaker -- this scenario is the same with a soundbar.

    So it's quite critical to get the speakers to form a triangle with your TV in the center. When I mean, in the center... I mean it. Take example my room, I'm regretting that my stands (from turbokiller of PDVD) falls too short from my TV mount. If I can redo it, I'll ask for +3mm cguro. As my speakers are lower than my TV, my soundstage is lower than eye-level so whenever I'm watching movies from the sofa. It feels as if lahat ng sounds galing sa Samsung na logo sa gitna (that low).. to compensate, I usually just watch at the bed nalang. This flaw forces me to watch movies more on the bed rather than the sofa. Of course, for music listening it's okay naman.



    As to what speakers I would suggest, sa totoo lang.. this will vary from person to person unless you "know" what you want. If you are not brand-fussy, I would recommend you get our very own Pinoy-made Anthony Audio's Omega bookshelf speakers for 16,000php (pre-discounted price). 8" midbass will go a very long way in satisfying your bass demands. The problem with Anthony Audio speakers is that their resale value sucks. But as long as you'll keep it, you should not have any problems with it.

    For high-end brands, I am very loyal to Dynaudio when it comes to home audio. As evidenced by my Dynaudio Excite X12. That's just a 5.25" midbass speaker.. but it satisfies my bass demands to the point I don't need a subwoofer. And I'd say my standards are very high in anybody's book. Tonal balance is key ;)

    Dusit Hotel will be playing host to the Philippines' annual November Hi-Fi show in Nov 9-10. If you're planning to get your audio gears, this is the time to do it as prices are greatly discounted during the show. I'll be attending on Nov 10 just to listen to some goodies ;)

    I'lll probably just settle with JBL SB400 soundbar hehe my room is too small for a real 5.1 speaker system. I was quoted 15% off srp by a shop. Will wait for the Dusit show to check if they have further discount there. Need to buy TV rack pa. I saw Sabre. Looks good naman but kinda pricey. And i also need to buy a couch. Walang neck support yung couch ko ngayon

    sir... why not go for projector ? kahit 150" pwede.....

    meron nang 3D full hd na pj like the panasonic AE8000 ang bigay lang sakin 126k...

    but if i were you better buy yung tig 156k...

    then get the latest PJ DIAMOND screen kahit nasa well lighted area ka... super duper clear pa din... para kang naka led full hd na tv...

    it cost around 3k US dollars....

    When buying LED TV.. wag po kayo bibile ng ang led nasa side... at nagkakaron ng kunting backlight bleeding...
