MaxPower Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 So I'm moving in to a place on my own. For the last 2-3 years I have always had someone else in the house with a stereo, so I have to buy myself something. I was thinking ipod with docking station, as I have been meaning to get one for a while. But then I realised that I have been feeding the Playstation through his stereo lately. I can go back to sound through the TV, as I only play games like Madden, NBA, HCTP, so big sound doesn't matter as much. Then there is DVD's, which I normally watch more tv series (seinfled, simpsons, family guy, etc) more so than movies, so sound shouldn't be an issue. So, what would you guys do in my situation, and I am working on a minimal budget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 Stick with the PS2. No need to buy a new stereo when the gaming system can play both DVDs and CDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPower Posted March 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 So just listen to CD's though my TV? Not a bad idea and cheap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxPower Posted April 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 downside, PS2 doesn't have a screensaver, so it's always stuck on the play screen, which is a bit annoying. And no radio. But, given that I can't afford anything else, it is definately livable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Ask yourself if you really need the radio. I mean, do you listen to the radio outside of the car? And as for the screensaver thing, well, you don't need to watch the stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyre Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 And if your worried about it burning into the screen, just turn the tv off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPower Posted April 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 you idiot if I turn the TV off, I won't get sound. The TV is my only instrument of sound in the place. Yoda, it's more when you have people around and there is this stupid display on the tv for the cd player. And as for the radio part, I listen to it a bit on Weekends when reading the paper and doing housework. I guess with all my bitching, I have to buy myself a stereo.
