Hi all, (Note: I don' have very high A/V standards/expectations, as I am a student on a budget.) I have just gotten a Sharp 42" LCD HDTV (LC42SB45UT) and the picture is great for me, but the built-in speakers just aren't doing it for me. I'm mostly using the TV for gaming, and some DVD watching. What I'd like is to set up a halfway decent surround sound system as cost effectively as possible. Here's the tricky part: the TV ONLY has a digital audio (coaxial) output. I'm running an Xbox 360 to the TV via HDMI cable, so it looks like I can't separately run the audio output from that to anything else. The setup is in my living room, which is not huge so no space for big freestanding speakers, but those smaller speakers that you can mount to the walls would work. I don't have a receiver or speakers. So, what do I need to get, and what are the most cost-effective options?Thanks,~jason
