Decided I need to get some kind of proper audio situation sorted for my dorm room next semester, I have a budget of up to $200. Uses would be gaming, movies and music
I've got a MBP, a PS3, 26"TV, an iPod I'd like to be able to dock and an Airport Express. I'm trying to figure out how (or if) I can connect all these sources to a single output easily, so I don't know if I should go with a headset or speakers.
Headsets would probably make sense since I could use them and not wake the neighbours or anything. The Sony PS3 7.1 Headset looks like a pretty good deal, but I've heard the surround sound doesn't work on Mac or PC so that diminishes the allure somewhat.
However I think I just like the idea of speakers a lot better- right now I'm looking at the Audioengine A2s, but they don't have an iPod dock.
So really I'm just asking if anyone has good advice for audio setups for a college dorm- specific speakers or perhaps headset recommendations would be great. I'm fairly new to the world of audio equipment so any help would be awesome!
