As per the title, really. I'm looking for something to add to my PC/X360 setup - I currently have a set of Logitech speakers connected to the PC. They do a good job, but I have to have the PC running for the 360 to output sound, as it's plugged into the line in on the PC.
So I was wondering if a small, no frills 5.1 amp existed that I could plug both into and get a set of dinky speakers (this is to be used at a desk, not a living room or anything)..
Whilst I'm on speakers...
Just to explain, this is my room I'm sorting out - I share a flat with someone and am, at the moment, just looking into expanding the possibilities around my PC, 360 and (soon to arrive) 24" HD Dell monitor.
My chair has its back to the door and over my left shoulder, behind the open door, is the bed. So rear speakers would have to be a kind of weird placement - one above the door, one above the bed. All of which is about 4-5 feet behind me. The desk I'm sitting at is against the other wall. The desk is big enough to turn the monitor to face the bed (about 35 degrees) so that would kind of knacker rears when watching in bed.
How "well" do soundbars work in a small environment like this? The concept seems almost tailor made...
