| Hrm I just bought a new reciever *cheap one* to support DPL II for my ps2 games and some movies. It says it supports 110W per channel and I didn't know if there were certain limitations to the speakers i can buy for it? Such as is there a point at which certain higher level speakers will make no difference? And im not looking to spend thousands of dollars on this, just dont want to get ripped off for some crappy speakers. Any suggestions on where to buy speakers with good help or prices would be much obliged also. | |||

| Buying expensive speakers won't make a really cheap amp sound any more impressive. Which amp did you buy? Which brand? If you're going to spend thousands on speakers, why did you buy a cheap amp in the first place? If you want a quality sound set-up, I'd go for Dolby Digital decoding instead. I think the PS2 and XBox support it, I don't think the Gamecube does though. All the next generation consoles will probably support Dolby Digital with up to nine channels, negating the need for DPL II on consoles. I've got a Sony microsystem hooked up to my PC, and interchange it with all my consoles. It's not totally high quality, but it does the job for all my games at the moment. It makes World of Warcraft sound cool  You have to put your purchases in perspective. |

| Well what i got right now is a Pioneer amp that supports DTS Dolby Digital and DPLIIx and maybe some other decoders. It supports up to 7.1speakers and has has coax and optical inputs for DTS and others that use it so I thought this was a decent system or is the amperage crap or did i miss something??? And actually im upgrading from a simple bookshelf stereo and right now im just using its old speakers till i can learn about what i need to buy\find for this. As for the speakers i did say im NOT looking to spend that much on speakers!!! OMFG 1000+dollars is alot!! But really I would rather pick up a few speakers at garage sales and before trash day... though those are probably gonna be much lesser quality. Since I must go out and spend money to get decent speakers to fill for my reciever I was askin will good quality(3-400dollar max though depends on how much I can get out of my reciever) speakers sound bad on my reciever with the quality it is or is mine so low that it will only output crappy sound though i know this is probably hard since you cant hear it  hope someone can help a little with a good place to shop for speakers at least... |
