Hey guys I need some advice.
I am looking for a 7.1 system for my computer.
The most obvious option is to buy a full home theater system but this will cost an absolute minimum of $500. The problem with this solution is it leaves me with a system which is a minimum of 500W. This amount of power for a computer system when I sit only a few inches from the speakers is totally unnecessary. This means I am paying for power which I am simply never going to make use of.
The other option, which is more preferable, is to purchase a system designed for the PC, in the output range of maybe 100W or so but also only costs $100- $200. This would appear to the be the ideal solution BUT NO SUCH SYSTEM EXISTS! The only system I have been able to find is the Creative Inspire T7700 released 10 years ago. NO OTHER PC DESIGNED 7.1 SYSTEM HAS BEEN RELEASED SINCE!
Can anyone please help me. I either need a third solution or I need someone to tell me about some system similar to the Creative Inspire T7700 which is currently available on the market.
Thanks in advance
