Audio systems are probably the electronics area I know least about so here I am.
I want a home cinema system to hook up to my PS3 and LCD TV (integrated freeview). Heres a link to my main LCD TV:
Sharp LC32AD5E.
Now the PS3 obviously has optical and HDMI out, but the TV only has audio out LR (phono) (see link above for inputs etc.
I'm using my mates old Sony 5.1 home cinema system at the mo, it doesnt have optical or anything so I'm just using the audio out LR on my TV into the back of the amp, but obviously this is only 2 channel for everything, although it ouputs to all the speakers and sub.
Questions:
- How do I get true 5.1 from the TV? Is it even possible? (i'm thinking no)
- Is there a way to get true 5.1 from the PS3 without using optical?
- Recommend me a decent (but not overly expensive) home cinema system to start me off
