Surround sound (cheap, very cheap)
Good day, i am thinking of getting a surround sound system. I have seen this in Argos, but its really cheap. Is it even worth getting, i don't really have any knowledge about surround sound, thanks in advance.

If you’re looking for cheap surround sound look at some of the Logitech 5.1 systems with optical in. (use the optical from your ps3)
Most Logitech stuff is THX Dolby etc.
It’s hard to find good speakers without paying an arm and a leg.
I suggest optical because the only other way is have HDMI go through your TV or receiver and then output it from the TV/receiver. The receiver is added cost to your solution too. I would go straight to the Speakers unless I had a nice receiver.

I could be wrong but did you just ask if it can be connected using an optical connector?
The answer would be yes....
Kind of a redundant question though.
