SpeedFreakz Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Hi, I was wondering does anyone knows any affordable/budget 5.1 system to enjoy casual movie nights? Back in EU there were plenty of choices, even the dvd+speaker system was affordable. here in Thailand all I can see is karaoke 2.1 type of speakers, or huge overpriced systems. I am looking for something that doesn't have to be loud, and needs to have digital audio input. Microlab has a nice cheap surround, but there is no digital audio in.

BritManToo Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) Back in the UK I paid a fortune for surround sound .............. It wasn't any better than these @ 150bht. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/bluetooth-50-ipx7-wireless-earbud-tws-earphone-i2298278948-s7745100518.html Try them, you'll be amazed ...... and if you don't like them you haven't wasted much.

CarlBkk Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 If I was in the market for a 5.1 system I'd be looking second hand on facebook marketplace. Lots of choice on there without spending a fortune, and many infinitely better than Microlab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Polk do a budget system in a box, TL1600, for 12K but dont expect too much from the plastic speakers. I used to have an LG surround system back in the day before soundbars, which included the DVD player / receiver - I paid around 10K I think if you are buying new, then Polk are the some of the cheapest, I paid around 35-37K for my Polk 5.1 system + plus cable + Yamaha receiver (around 15K in the Lazada sale) - I think it’s more than good enough for the money. You might want to look at 2nd hand on Facebook or some places in BKK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airalee Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I second the Facebook marketplace reccomendation. A second hand NAD or Marantz surround receiver and whatever speakers fit your budget* *not sure what you consider affordable/budget Personally, I prefer higher quality 2.1 (even for movies) over lower quality 5.1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
