Title: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 12:05:55 Ok Tech heads
Your advice would be gratefully recieved ; I currently play all my music through my PS3 on to a 5:1 speaker system, and am looking to invest in an amp to enhance the sound quality. What sort of amp do I need to get and is it soing to be a pain in the hole to set up ? Love Fred x Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Chubbs on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 12:17:45 speak to ginge mate, IIRC he sorted bennetts out.
Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 12:24:07 A relatively cheap surround sound receiver/amplifier would do the job, you're not going to get belting quality unless you upgrade the entire system.

Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 13:26:38 Get a decent cd player and amp setup, will be a doddle to set up. As Chubbs says axs is the best man to ask, I haven't kept in touch with the hi-fi market.

If you do, get an an amp that is capable of decoding DTS-HD signals, that way you can have high def sound if watching blu-rays etc Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 14:39:45 I do mate ........... I use it more for music / blu ray than gaming really, because I am an old cunt

Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 15:21:27 have already upgraded the speaker system to 600w so want something to make the most of them Si Ah, I thought you still had those crappy little ones :) You just want a decent 5.1 surround amp (I take it you've got a sub as well?). Most newer ones have HDMI connections. Give me a shout when you've sorted it all and I'll come and hook it all up. Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 15:30:59 Yeah ............. the sub is mahoosive
cheers mate Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: sheepshagger on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 15:32:46 Make sure you have enough digital inputs on the amp too.....
1 for PS3 1 for Sky HD box (if you have one) That would be the very least you should need I think..... Title: Re: PS3 / AMP advice Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, March 23, 2010, 15:36:29 Happy Days
