hello i've have been looking all over the web for a reasonable surround sound system for the ps3 , i want it to give off pure , crystall sound and sound great from the ps3 , i want it to be good but unfortunatly my room is not off a great size and my bedroom is upstairs , so there is no need for a huge bass system when i wont have no use (thats for downstairs)

i have been looking at pc speakers set's usually with 5 speakers and 1 subwoother, the thing is if you can see in the picture i have a shelf for my ps3 and didn't want to go through the fuss for another shelf to put such amplifier on it, or sound reciever

so please can you make any recommendations.:)

Wow you have one crowded @ss room, but clea wall mount (Tv). Anyways... I would go with a 2.1 in your case; maybe something like a Samsung 400W 2.1 Home Theater System. Remember not to get the reciever; just the sp[eakers and subwoofer and grab yourself a Optical cable to plug into the back of your Ps3. Your set buddy :)

Here is a home theater system I got for my bedroom.

The sound quality is great, and it upscales all DVD's with HDMI and it comes with an Ipod dock. It is a great system now for $194 or so where as I got mine in May for $240 or so off of Dell.com. You should check it out though.

lower your tv to about the level your head would be if you were sitting up straight on your bed, ergonomics

You might want to check out Tigerdirect.com or Newegg.com. they have 5.1(or 2.1) Logitech for PC or somethin' for low prices. ....BTW, I have 5.1 for my PS3 and 2.1 for my PC in my room. you should too. LOL

Surround sound is a waste of money in a small room. Get a nice 2 speaker stereo system for optimal results. Configuring the PS3 to play nicely is a hassle, too.
