Page 1 of Help!! Sony HTK-475 or Sony HTK-215 for first time buyer?

I am looking to buy my first home cinema set up and have seen the sony htk-475 dolby digital/dts set up in argos, it looks pretty nifty with an amp/receiver and pascal speakers. Its priced at 400.00.
Or should I go for the Sony HTK-215 or digitheatre as these are far cheaper?
Anyone know which has better sound?

HTK-475 only costs £315 from unbeatable.co.uk website. I`ve ordered one and it`s due to arrive any moment.

Theoretically, the 475 should be far superior than the 215 (much better receiver)...hence if you can afford it, I would certainly go for the 475.

Cheers I`ll have a look!!

475 is a bigger number than 215 - so you should get the 475 natch.....

Based on Feckers in-depth and technical reasoning I will indeed consider the 475 natch.....
Cheers Fecker!!
