Suggestions below.
We should talk. Call me sometime at 314-369-5015. I can help and home
theater is a passion of mine. You don't know what you're missing, and there
are options for cheap.
Bottom line is you can get a Visio $348 5.1 channel sound bar from Costco.
This is wireless to the rear/sub. JVC makes a better one that's all
wireless for about $500.

Step 1. DVD/BRD player --- HDMI to TV (gives you streaming movies to your
tv from Netflix for $895 per month. (Get HDMI for $10 from parts express)
Step 2 -- DVD/BRD player optical out to Viso soundbar optical in -- ($10.00
for Toslink from Parts Express.)
Step 3 -- analog out from BD player and Uverse to your receiver.
This is just one of many paths.
If you do not have a Uverse HD receiver you will want to get one for two
reasons:
It will have 5.1 sound, which is broadcast for sports too.
If the Uverse set has antenna in, which it should, You can get a $20 antenna
from radio shack and get FREE HD off the air for your local stations, with
5.1 sound.
Ideally you should get:
-- 3 new speakers
-- A subwoofer
-- An AV receiver with at least 5.1 channels
-- Some cables from Parts Express. (NEVER buy cables in Best buy unless you
want screwed or don't care you are paying 10x too much.)
Best,
JO
