Hi folks,

bought an Intel iMac and although the sound from its speakers is quite nice, I would like to have some Dolby flare (or what ever is up to date these days).

What would you suggest as "surround" speakers to make watching DVDs a new experience ? I saw the iMac has optical audio out.

Thanks for advise

Logitech does some setups that have optical and the full surround sound experience. However, if I get an upgrade to my sound setup, it'll be a good amplifier and excellent monitor speakers - good sound isn't really a computer peripheral sort of thing...
