So I did it, I bought myself a spanking new 42" Plasma and now looking for a relatively good surround system. My budget would be around 500 euros max and I spotted this system, the pioneer DCS-340 which seems to be good enough for me.

I've been browsing the web trying to find reviews on the system but cant seem to find it. "Google are not teh frend anymore".

So I'm turning myself ot you guys. SO if you own this product could you please tell me how you feel about it. Basicly what I want to know if the cables that are bundled are long enough or would I need to purchase some extras.

Also as I'm a bit new to the whole home cinema thing I have some other questions.

The subwoofer has a special audio cable right?
If so how long is the bundled cable with the system?
How easy was the setup for you, not the actual installation of the speakers since thats pretty straight forward but rather the sound setup.

If you have another home system that you'd think would suit me better please link it here.

What I'm looking for is a DvD player that preferably is not region locked but its not the end of the world if it isnt. It should play DivX content.

The speakers themselves should be satelites in the rear but regular speakers in the front.

I'm pretty incoherent now but hopefully I've made myself clear.

Thanks in advance.
