Sounds like a prat. He wants to get a couple of 2K bass amps and some butt
kickers under his seat.

Bit OT but my brother's asked - £400 worth of sound to supplement his 42"
TV in a largish (about 30' x 20') lounge. Mainly for TV/film. Couple of
complications:

* He doesn't want trailing wires, or the hassle of routing cables. So I've
tried to steer him in the direction of those 2.1 soundbar things, like
this:

Which of course means no rear speakers. Personally, I think they're very
effective and add quite a bit to films. Not enough for me to bother mind -
but then I listen to music mostly. Does anyone know if the wireless
speakers work - things like this:

* He's pretty obsessed with the appearance of the thing. He's just thrown
a DVD recorder I gave him in the bin because it's silver(!). So it has to
be black and discrete and match his Sony telly. Much as I think a 'normal'
hifi is the best way to go, I don't think the aesthetics would cut it.

Overall, I've asked him to go to a shop and get some advice. For a number
of reasons (some good, some questionable) I don't think he's going to do
that. Any ideas?

Thanks, Rob
