Re: S*ggestions - Whi*h speaker set to b*y within 5K.

How abo*t the 2.1 speaker systems?

Altec lansing VS3251..for 5.1. if u want 2.1 then theres one model from JBL.

Creative Inspire 5.1 FTW !!! buy that

Just to inform u guys, if u r in to music then u should go for 2.1 speakers cos there r few songs which are made to play with 5 channels.
But if u r in to movies and gaming then head for 5.1 systems.
Just another thought if u cud extend ur budget then go for a basic sound card(like Creative soundblaster) and then buy a nice Altec Lansing or Creative, cos they are best in this range.
Hope u a make a good choice and let us know about ur venture...
See ya...........

FOA, Nice choice with the speakers.

See, u can use RCA cables for front left and right connections. Same can be done for rear speakers and Center speakers using the 3.5mm to RCA adapter, that comes with the package.

Also called as Splitter Audio Cable for component hook ups!

Donno about the connectors but X540 has great sound. Don't think again and go for it!

Take a look at this

the spk are for 5.5k...

hey thanx mayank for the info... but by the way u said....
i can hook up, front L+R, rear L+R, and center 1:1, then wot 2 hook up in sub-woofer point.

thanx

yep. *techgage.com/article/logitech_x-540_51_speakers/1

That reviews shows it all.

You can use RCA converters

1) Front (white) to 2 RCA for DVD player
2) Read (black) to 2 RCA for DVD player
3) Sub/center (orange) to DVD players center.

btw, what is the model number of your DVD player??

Do not even thing of Creative Inspire series. They are nothing before X-540's and altec lansing's surround sets.

Just like Front and Rear L+R...there is Center/LFE input & output!
