Simple question for you - I've got about £150 to spend and I want a little 5.1 system I can use with my PC and then later with TV and stand alone DVD player.

I've got the Videologic Digitheatre and this <a href="http://www.novatech.co.uk/Novatech/SpecPage.html?parameters=stockcode=NOV-HT518'" target="_blank">5.1 system at Novatech</a> in mind.

Which would be the best for me?

Ta,

Chris

I guess it depends on wether DTS is an option to you. I have a Digitheatre DTS and i'm very happy with it although 90% of the time i watch in Dolby Digital. I haven't heard of that Novatech one, it looks quite neat but i guess it's down to performance. Those Digitheatres have been kicking around for a while now even my DTS Digitheatre is about 18 months old.

Maybe someone will post with any experiences thay've had with Novatech. It looks interesting though.

That Novatech system doesn't have a DD decoder - it's just an amplified sub/sat system, so for your needs it's pretty useless.
