Surround Sound for 360

[VeinAST]

As title really, have no idea what to look for but don't want to spend much more than £100 and much less would be ideal as long as it's not Acoustic Solutions !!

Not looking for anything special just something with a bit of realism/nothing too boomy as it's in my bedroom but ideal for playing Call of Duty on!

Many Thanks

P.S Sorry this kinda sounds like a wanted advert but just wanted a bit of advice really.

TBF, to get a half decent budget system you want to spend around £250. And that is a very small budget lol!

I have a Samsung one from 2 years back, cost me £300 but for the price its brilliant and does what it needs to do in my bedroom!

Don't buy a Panasonic Surround system as the speakers are SH!T!

I've got a Sony 850w jobby, got it for around £110 iirc, it's pretty good!

i would say £250 is a good budget also. Duno what chris got for his £110. sound like he doesn`t know either from his description. For £250 i got a sony 6.1 surrond system. linked to the 360 via an optical cable. I now know when someone is sneaking up behind me coz i can here them on teh speaker behind my head. Awesome stuff and a great investment imo!

Yea, a lot of the cheap Surrounds aren't real 5.1 either, and the speakers are absolutely s**t.

I install home cinema system's (nothing like these ones, proper audio stuff) and for £250 you'll never replicate it, but in a small bedroom environment you'll do a good job tryin, with a hundred quid, you won't get anywhere close to 10% as good!

For the money I wouldn't have thought you'd get any better
