Videologic, Sony or Yamaha for £350? I dunno which is the best!
Yamaha HTiB40
Sony HTK475 (SAVE225 Speakers and STR-DE475 Reciever)
Videologic DTS
As a total newbie to this Home Cinema stuff, I`m wondering if anyone has got any advice on which of these systems I should get for my Widescreen+DVD setup.
I had my heart set on the Videologic with all it`s glowing reviews but after seeing it in Comet yesterday I felt it looked a bit `cheap` (but couldn`t get a demo to hear the sound which I guess is what counts)
A friend of mine pointed me towards these other Yamaha and Sony setups, does anyone know how they all compare quality/performance wise? I`ve spent all last night looking for reviews but can`t find any.
BTW they are all around the £350 mark.

What about the Yamaha VS10 ? That`s been getting rave reviews everywhere I`ve looked, anyway...

I`ll certainly give it a look, can you give me a retailer`s site where I can have a look at the specs and price?

Funnily enough!
Retailers include www.unbeatable.co.uk (cheap) some people have been getting them from John Lewis, who will price-match internet retailers and give you an extra year`s warranty!

But MUCH cheaper here:

Remember, John Lewis will match this price!

Recommend the VS10
I got it from leconcepts (compared it to Sony, but the richness of sound is just better)
They don`t have many left currently
But John Lewis don`t have Silver in stock across southcoast (as of last week) anyway
Mind you leconcepts was ordered 3.30pm and delivered 10.30am next day, which I thought was good, so why go to JL?

I`ve got 2 questions about the VS10
1: My Samsung 511 has not got a DTS-decoder will the VS10 decode and produce DTS Sound?
2: Does the VS10 come with 5 speakers (centre, 2 front, 2 rear) and a subwoofer. It`s just on the Yamaha site, it is shown with 2 speakers and subwoofer?
