    Hi,
    I was wondering has anyone got a cheap(ish) surround sound system for their ps2. I know that there is a Creative Inspire 5.1 system but that costs around ?200. Are there any other options?
    Any ideas?
    Cheers,
    Mickey.

    Arrrrr, any inexpensive surround sound stereo will work, so it will...granted it be needin' Dolby 5.1 capabilities and I HIGHLY suggest using the optical cable for sound...I swears there be Nazis in me house when I'm a playin MOH.

    You have to use the optic cable to get 5.1 surround.

    I just got a JVC TH-A5 from eBay for $140 USD, which is pretty awesome with the PS2. It's mostly just a DVD Player with the built-in 5.1 decoder and amps, (and speakers, small but great) but it also has an optical input. I tried GTA3's DTS capabilities with it, and it worked beautifully. Great solution if you just want a quick all-in-one answer without spending too much cash.
