The HTX-22HD is up-gradable to 5.1 | |

why not just get an onkyo 606 for about £350 and just get some cheap speakers to go with it till you want to upgrade to a 5.1 set. | |

Haha, probably from me! I can't praise them enough. Bought the 605 and then upgraded to the 806 a few months later. Love their AV amps. | |

quote: I dont want to spend much because its only for my bedroom and the speakers built in to my Samsung R74 TV are totally crap no matter how its set up. They lack any real volume and have no bass at all which is no good when watching films! I'll buy a proper set up when I move out and get a bigger TV. | |

I do this connect my laptop to TV though a vga cable and I have a surround sound system so to get the audio from my laptop to that I use a cable like in the link below. Really cheap way of doing it if you have a spare input on the back of your amp. | |

wait if you only want two speakers and a subwoofer why bother, surely the speakers in the tv are decent enough? | |

Will either of these give me what I'm after and what cables would I need? Already have one HDMI cable. | |

As we've found out on here recently not all TV's will pass through the hdmi audio from the TV, you might get stereo at best, that's probably the best option though unless the laptop has optical out, in which case optical from the laptop straight to tv. | |

get an amp that will accept the optical output from the T.V. Connect your Laptop directly to the T.V. with HDMI and your T.V. to the amp with the optical thingy. that way whatever you are watching on T.V. (either t.v. or laptop blue ray stuff) will have its sound played through the amp. | |

Surely the sound out from your TV to amp would play the sound perfectly fine? | |

I have a laptop with Blu-Ray player that I connect to my TV with a HDMI cable for watching films/downloaded tv programs. |
