Looks pretty nice, Ive been thinking of getting something along the lines of this as Ive a couple of things requiring optical sound.

I bought Logitech 5500, it doesnt have the radio that thing has, however it does have 2 optical inputs, one digital input and 5.1 analogue inputs along with 2 headphone sockets.  Ã,£128 from Pixmania.

I took the plunge and bought one of these, really not worth the original Ã,£329 RRP (the remote isnt brilliantly put together) but for Ã,£149 its not bad. The sound is clear and fills my bedroom with ease, sub also does a really great job of the thunder in Oblivion. Actually makes you look out the window and check for lightning :lol:

Pioneer also have a promotion on these, buy one before the end of Jan 07 and you can claim 2 free games (need for speed most wanted and burnout revenge). Mine arrived this morning  :mrgreen:

Its got 2 optical inputs, a digital coaxial and normal phono rca. If youve got a pioneer telly its also got some control ports that allow you to connect it directly to the TV.

Mate of mine picked one up last week, for what it is (especially at that price) its very good. Even more so with this free two games promo. Not to mention Pioneer stuff tends to be of a high quality.
