158404 2003-07-09 04:39:00 Hi,
I was looking for some speakers to plug into a PS2 or a stereo, and maybe in the future into a PC. I was looking for surround sound ones. I don't want anything state of the art or very expensive. On pricespy, they have creative inspire 4.1 speakers they also had a Jazz J-7915 AURA 5.1 Digital Ready Speaker System and Genius SW-5.1 Value Surround Sound System, I was wondering whether anyone has had any experience with these systems and also whether there is any big advantage of 5.1 over 4.1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jase

Most pc motherboard these days come with 5.1 sound, but I don't really know how good it is for a true audiophiole, but I think the sound is getting better...
