what sound chipset/card do you have on your computer? If its ASUS or Creative, then they both have software which is capable of turning a standard stereo signal into a virtual surround signal on normal Stereo headsets which work very well indeed (im satisfied anyway). In which case just buy a decent 2.0 headset
if not, then use the Razer Megalodon which is coming out soon, it uses its own onboard upscaler for stereo sound which is generally superior to the onboard sound cards in terms of audio quality. It is also better than a cheaper 5.1 headset in terms of sound quality.
If you want a TV tuner inside it, this is a nice screen to get (Samsung T240HD, 1920x1200, HDMI, DVI, etc etc)
I myself upgraded from a 23" Samsung TV (beautiful panel, wide viewing angles, true 8bit colour channels, excellent brightness) 1360x768, to a 24" BenQ 1920x1200 monitor with HDMI. Im loving the extra room on the screen, but because i didnt spend that much, i dont have quite the same quality of panel as i did on my old samsung (cheaper panel type basically). I made that sacrifice but its something to bear in mind. The screen is still very nice. If your planning on buying PC games on it too, a beefy GPU is also required, my 8800GTS 320 is struggling somewhat (VRAM is low, and some other issues).
basically, get a 720p HDTV if you really want a TV tuner, accurate colours, excellent viewing angles
get a 1920x1200 monitor (with HDMI, maybe TV tuner) if you want a lot lot more space on the screen, and dont mind getting a 24" screen, want a less laggy screen and you are going to use it as a pc screen most of the time
For less money, you could get a 20 or 22" screen, which still has a TV tuner, and more screen space (1680x1050), but not quite as large as the 24".
Thanks all. It seems the DVI to HDMI cable I had was the problem. I tried all the above and nothing. I then used the ATI supplied HDMI to DVI adapter on a HDMI to HDMI cable and voila...sound! You would think either way would work..but oh well. Anyways, thanks...now to worry about cordless mouse and keyboard so I can play from the couch...any suggestions on products if I'm about 10 feet away from the computer?joseguido1980
A DVI to HDMI cable simply has the connections to transmit a video signal from the GPU to the tv, it doesnt include pins for audio, as DVI doesnt have sound (Digital VIDEO Interface, not HD MULTIMEDIA Interface).
In your case, the GPU has specially designed hardware and software, so the DVI output also includes sound. The adapter allows the added sound pins to transmit the sound onto the HDMI/HDMI cable, which has sound and audio built in.
