[QUOTE="patrikr, post: 39905, member: 18664"] Hi, Hope this is not off-topic but here goes. My home theater setup is due for replacement and instead of replacing the amp, dvd-player and speakers with new ones for thousands of dollars, I'm thinking about replacing them all with a HTPC. Anyone knows if a HTPC with perhaps a Creative Audigy 2ZS soundcard and Creative Gigaworks S750 can replace a "real" amp and speakers? Any idea of what type of sound I'd get in a room thats 6 meters long, 5 meters wide and where floor to ceiling is 3 meters? The room is pretty much square without too much stuff on the walls. Think that setup would be enough for a powerful audio experience?
