Soundbar Recommendations...

    Hi Folks,

    I'm looking for a wall-mountable surround soundbar w/ wireless subwoofer and HDMI inputs / passthroughs and, most importantly, I'm looking for something in the sub-€250 range :)

    From browsing online, I think I may have to stretch my budget a bit. However, I would be totally up for a used / refurbished model. Does anyone have any recommendations? Obviously, the quality is important to me, but that being said, all I want is some "decent" sound to replace the crappy built-in speakers on my 42" Samsung. By and large, the TV is ok but when it comes to movies with any kind of dynamic range of audio, I find myself raising and lowering the volume constantly (even resorting to enable subtitles on the fly sometimes - ridiculous!).

    So, it doesn't have to be outstanding quality; it just has to be better than "crap" ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    Hmmmm... I know it doesn't conform to the specs I mentioned above, but the Vizio VSB200 is actually starting to look very attractive! Great reviews and fantastic price. I can live with a 1 x optical SPDIF port / phono inputs for that price.

    Bonus question: Anyone have any experience with these Vizio soundbars? :)

    [Just realised this should probably have gone in the Audio sub-forum of Home Theatre - apologies mods]
