Hi All, As the title suggests. I need a 5.1 surround sound amp and accompanying speakers. I require everything to be compact and have the following sources to connect up. 1x Ps3 1x V+ box 1x Wii 1x Freeview built into LCD TV Samsung I really like the tiny Sony DAV-IS10 but it only...

Comet Engineer came out to test the LCD. He was very helpful. Conclusion was something to do with 'Moire'. Anyway good news is I have been granted a replacement Samsung or pay the difference for the new 'winning' Sony Bravia. #Note to Andrew and Claire, will i really see much of a difference...

Hi Proff, Shame this little gem does not have an HDMi in for additional sources.

Hi Andrew, Just to let you know in case you were interested.... I read the Samsung manual and it says that the optical out on the LCD TV will transmit all of the audio in sources but only in stereo. So if i passed 5.1 in to the tv via HDMI only stereo would come out of the optical out. I...

Can I just point out that i think you are wrong 'rewerb' in your statement about the V+ widescreen setting. If you set the V+ box to '1080' rather than '1080 wide' your TV should detect the picture format and display the image correctly, ie if its a widescreen broadcast it will display in...

In the evening when my living room is not flooded with day light i can still see the brighter area on my screen. I have organised for an engineer to come out on saturday to do have it investigated. I will post back the results as to whether the engineer thinks its a fault or within acceptable...

Thanks for the advise. I would like a neat compact system so I assume a switcher would be another small box that i would have to get my lazy @$$ off the sofa to change audio source with or would all the sources feed through at the same time (no switch, just a connection box). If so are there...

I have multiple sources supplying audio/visual to my Samsung LCD TV each using HDMI connections. The sources are, PS3, V+ STB, Nintendo Wii & the built in freeview tuner. I need a small discrete surround sound solution like the Dav-IS10 system. If I connect the optical out on my LCD TV to the...

The lighter area of the screen seems to have evened out. Is that possible or am i just going blind? The TV has been on stand by now for 5 days and switched on in the evenings for viewing. [edit] whoops, just finished reading the thread you linked to professorhat maybe i am not blind.

When the what hifi team receive LCDs for review, do all of the reviewed screens have even backlighting? As the cost of the screen was £1100.00 (please don't start a debate about where i could have got it cheaper) I expect it to be darned good and this brighter area on the screen is quite...

Are any of the What Hi-Fi team available for comment in addition to the above?
