I am currently scouting around for a home theatre system. Most of the HTS that I saw are 5.1 which I am not looking at because of the wires & space constraint. So now looking at soundbars or 2.1 HTS. Any recommendations from anyone? My budget is 1k and below.

think you can try yamaha sound bar it's ard 800+

Ok thanks! Should be 6100, cos 8140 cannot be so cheap, think ard 1.5k when i saw it at best denki last wkend.

yes, it should be the older model. most places are selling 6100 below $1K now. if you know someone who works at philips, you can get their staff price for 8140 at $1K.

I realised that the price for 5.1 are similar to some 2.1 systems. So if i buy 5.1 and put everything at the console, will it be ok? Oh will it defeat the purpose of having a 5.1?

If you're not brand conscious and not so much an audiophile, Akira has a soundbar that costs about $299.

The sound's pretty decent and you get the practical and space-saving too.

Can check it out at Giant or those neighbourhood dealers.

Can try waiting for this, been bugging Sony to bring it to Singapore:)
