I recently purchased a 32" LCD Vizio for my bedroom to use with my PS3 and I think it's finally time to upgrade from the tv speakers to some surround sound. The problem is I really don't know what to get. I'm looking for something relaitvely inexpensive (under $400 preferably) and nothing too big. I just want my blu-ray movies to sound better really. One of my friends said I should look into maybe getting a sound bar but idk if that will be better or worse than getting seperate speakers. Any suggestions on what I should get? I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to home theater audio..

Also, what is the model of the television? What is your source (cable, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.)? Happy gaming, Boz

If there's no amp, I'd spend a little extra--around $550. Onkyo A-5VLCambridge Audio S30
