Dear all, newbie here.

Any recommendations for

40inch tv, thin bezel as possible, budget 2k to 3k

5.1 speaker system, budget 2k to 3k

only install in small living room of a Condo, so space is limited.

Thanks.

Hi all, plan to buy home speaker for my LG TV.

I am looking at Samsung HW-Q60R soundbar, tested it and feel like not to the extend as a lower price of 5.1ch home theater system did.

Is there any recommendation for 5.1ch home theater system with budget below 2k?

Mainly for music and movie purpose, not a very high end user also.

Thanks.

HI all,

Newbie here, Would like to ask your kind advise for sound system.

I am looking at Sony soundbar HT RT40 and Edifier S350db speaker.

I will use them in my living room ( 18ft x 16ft) for movie and music but noticed that one is with 600watt and another one only 150watts.

which one will be better? sound quality , Edifier will be better? but loud enough to use in living room?

Thanks .

i am using S350db in my room.. it play loud and i havent push it to the limit... the downside with this system is i dont know how loud it will max... no indicator for the volume wattage percentage. SD350db give u tight bass considering i upgraded from Edifier C3. Depends on what you are looking S350DB will be nice if ur music oriented.. if u r heavy on movies... 5.1 will be a better choice.. but get something with hdmi input  cool2.gif

thanks for reply bro. my living room area only about 16ft x 14 ft, will the speaker loud enough to cover?

I don think i will make full use of 5.1ch , 2.1 ch seems common use daily.

Mainly for music and also movie. i tried on SOny Ht rt 40 spound bar, which is 600watt,
the sound is super loud, but...so so only. not clear as even my home cheap Edifier E2100.

But most ppl recommend Edifier s350db, no doubt, the sound quality should be nicer lot than any soundbar?

only concern is it loud enough to make me immerse in the movie? lol. Anyway, i m not audiophile. as long got the ;feeling; , then is nice enough.

Any advise bro?

i believe yes but a lot of factor to consider like ceiling height and the placement of ur stuff that will absorb the sound wave.. S350DB really play loud..

i dont really trust soundbar so i hardly comment here.. lets see if we have some owner that can advise you on this..
S350DB got a solid box and sound solid.. i believe you can enjoy ur music a lot.. as for movie the subwoofer will give u some decent bass but dont play it for too long.. i feel that edifier amp tends to overheat over time and component start failing.. moderate use is recommended

Thanks for reply again bro.

Ya. soundbar....only the so call watts make me confused only. n there is no display sets to let me test on Edifier S350db unit.

Mostly used on daily , music, n movie in weekend , should be ok for the subwoofer?

yea man.. i faced the same issue i went to harvey they do not have a display set only an unopened box.. no demo available.. i can only relies on online review..

just dont turn loud for long time to protect the amp.. turn off the power when you are not using it..

my c3 i left it on standby over weeks and it gave up on me doh.gif
