    Hi, I am looking at your receivers that you have on special and I want one! But, I have no idea what I am doing in all honesty. I want to get on to the surround sound ladder as it were but I don't know what's good and whats not...

    Maybe you could put something together for me at around the €500 mark? perferably something on special at the moment ;)

    I leave my fate in your hands.

    Thanks,

    d

    EDIT: I should probably put more detail in as to what I want/need... I just want sound at the moment. No bluray player etc (have a ps3 for that at the moment). I assume that means just speaker kit and receiver, but like I said above, I'm really not sure. I have kept an eye on this sub forum for a while though, and you always seem to do the best by us boardsies so that's why I thought I would try you's first :)

    Hey d31b0y.

    One of your best options woudl be to have a look at the following kit:

    Pioneer VSx819 priced at £229.95 / 269.99 Euro
    https://www.richersounds.ie/asp/product.asp?objectid=938&mode=0&categoryid=3&sub=24&productid=966&c=1

    Monitor Audio Vector 5.1 pack (Limited Boardie Special Price) £299.95 / 349.99 Euro
    https://www.richersounds.ie/asp/product.asp?ObjectID=938&Mode=0&CategoryID=5&SUB=100&ProductID=954

    Or you could throw your eye over the Pioneer deal we have running at the moment:

    Pioneer DCS585

    This is a really nice one box 5.1 DVD Home Cinema system with HDMI out and USB input - it has a pretty unique speaker setup as you can use it either as a 2.1 or a 5.1 speaker system see details here:

    This system did retail at £329.95 - the cheapest I can find it anywhere new, boxed is £279.95 - I can do it on a Boardies exclusive at just £229.95 / €269.99

    This looks good. It's slightly over my limit though. Will this be the final price including delivery? If it is, I will see if the funds can stretch :)

    I could have the two items delivered to you at that price to help ease your stretching budget ;)

    Let me know what you think.

    Ahhh.... feck it. I'll do it. Seems like a good deal to me.
    I need a new power outlet now though. Not enough space on my 4 plug. Do you have any of these? Would you be able to price one up for me and add to the package?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,028 ✭✭✭d31b0y


    Hi guys, thanks for the setup. It's a great system.

    Just one thing though... I never got my 6 way mains pack. Don't need it anymore mind you. In fact I'm not even sure if I was charged for it (you might be able to check?).

    Thanks all,

    d

    Apologies for that and great to hear you are enjoying your Pioneer BC FS500 (Still available on a Boardie special at just £299.95) - I have checked your account and you were not charged for the 6 way mains board - give us a shout if you still need one and we will get one out to you.

    Thansk again and keep us posted,

    ATB,
