I use my computer a lot in my home office for development and like to listen to music streamed from my home theater computer downstairs as I work. I'm currently using a pair of cheasy computer speakers that came with one of my systems and the sound is pretty sub par. I'm looking at getting a micro stereo system to use with my computer rather then computer speakers and simply hook the computer into it through an input. The reason being is I want to be able to use it independently from the computer at times.
I'm currently considering the Panasonic SC-PM91D system http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...lance&n=172282. I like the fact it has a built-in DVD player which I plan on connecting to my monitor through the component inputs to let my son watch movies without having to use the computer. Additionally, if I upgrade down the road the DVD feature would be useful if I move this to a bedroom. Having said that, if there is another system with wildly better sound but lacked the DVD capability I woulds till consider it. My only other requirement is that it look at least somewhat business like, no tricked out systems targetted at 18 year olds. Any recommendations? |

Another one I considered was the JVC FSY1...

I dropped into 2001 Audio Video and Best Buy today, one thing that was of interest was that a couple of the systems had a USB plug for streaming audio directly from a computer (like the JVC FSG5). It's an interesting feature, anyone have any experience with this to know if it actually works or is it a waste of time?
