    Hey guys, need some quick advice here if anybody views these forums at 7:42am while eating on their bowl of cereal
    Ok enough about breakfast, can any of you recommend me one of these two?
    The choices are:

    Or
    Speaker Set 2

    Im thinking more towards the first set
    Opinions would be very welcome, as well as,
    Does anybody know if u get an Optical/Coaxial connection cable in the box, or where can i get one retail?

    What do you want them for? What are you connecting them to?

    Your right, I didn't make it clear enough what I wanted them for.
    I went down to Argos and they had no more of the beach ones, and only one more silver set of DS 633, so i travelled along to dixons and found they for the same price had a Matsui black set (45W, small and ugly black with what looked to be a crappy and well used player)
    and a Matsui Silver set for £79, which was 50W and only dolby digital.
    Keeping this in mind, i returned to Argos and asked to view the Acoustic ones.
    In the end after a look, I purchased them and have set them up and have them connected to my Samsung DVD Player.

    I am very very pleased, these speakers carry the following specs:
    15W Rms Per Channel
    25W Rms Subwoofer
    With 3m Front speaker cables and 10m for the back two.
    They have integrated Dolby Prologic 2, DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1 Decoders.
    They have decent volume controls, a nice remote control, and the subwoofer does its job a heck of a lot better than my old TCM set! All in all i am very pleased, and am very glad I bought these instead of the beach. The bloke at the till also said he had the beach set and the center channel tends to distort and cackle at only moderate volume levels, so I took his advice partially and chose these
    And i also grabbed the last set in Hemel
