Hi everyone,

Been meaning to do this for a while but never got round to it and not
sure where to start.

I've had a Sony STR-DE 475 for a while now with the bundled Sony
speakers and have enjoyed it for movies.

However i've started to feed music in to it now, and i'm not impressed
with the sound i'm getting.

I guess its because of
a) the quality of speakers
b) the fact its a 5.1 speaker set up. So only two channels left/right
channel and sub are on.

What are the best choices to have the best of both worlds for music
and movies on this system?

Do I need to replace all the speakers with a better 5.1 speaker setup?

Replace the speakers with five good speakers that do not require a
sub?

Or replace the whole setup?

Obviously i'm on a budget, and was only looking to spend around 200 -
350.

Any recommendations on setups and links would be appreciated.

TIA,

Matt

Just to finish the thread. I replaced the left and right with some
Kef floor standing Qs. Really nice!

Will upgrade the rest later on.
