Hi All,

Which are the best 5.1 sound system that recommend for Xbox 360 Slim ( Got optical Port ).
Currently i am looking into Sonic Gear Enzo 7000 but cant find it anywhere now. I am in a quite tight budget.. Around RM 500.00 only for the sound system.

This are the list i am looking into :

1. Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker System
2. Sonic Gear Enzo 7000
3. Logitech Surround Sound Speakers Z506

Any more recommendation for me? I need 5.1 sound system below RM 500.00. Preferable with optical output.

Thank you.

With your budget you can't really aim high. HTIB may be your best bet, quite a few of them have optical input, especially the ones from Samsung.

THX has nothing to do with optical connection. THX is just a commercial certification. There are many HTIB out there with no THX certification yet has optical input. May be you have mistaken THX with dolby.

You can't get surround sound from Z506, only stereo.

You can get sound from your surroundings if you place them appropriately, but you could only get stereo sound, not real surround sound. It's like placing 2 pairs of stereo speakers front and back and nothing more.

That one only got 3.5mm input, but don't have optical input. And also don't have decoder.

I thought you already stated in your 1st post that you looking for optical connection for 5.1, why now links to non optical connection speaker?

Btw, still waiting for your monster cable review. laugh.gif

Nah.. Just the same as normal HDMI cable if use at non 1080p FULL HD TV.. But got a bit improvement for the graphics.. Just 8- 10% improvement.
My TV just HD Ready.. Not full.. So not much change, just a bit better.
Because all of you mention that optical input might cause more than RM 500.00.. So i am looking for normal one.. Sonic Gear ENZO 7000 got optical output and below RM 500 only but no more production ald. brows.gif

Yup.. Pirated... No choice... Original sold out... Need to wait for 1 month at that time ... Penang market always keep limited stock of original game.. Mostly the game shop keep it to fool the authority eyes... Eager to play this game.. So buy jack sparrow disc. Dead Space 2.

my 50% vote go to official,
other 50% go to pirate..
even tho i never buy pirate disk, but some games, who score under 3 from 10 rating, its not worth above rm 50!!
so there u goes..
u buy rm5 for shit games, worth it..
u buy rm5 for superb games, then u are true pirate..
captain jack loves u..
