I'm looking for a 5.1 speakers w/ decoder in it, which mean accept 2 channels input, and decode them to 5.1, I am looking for it to plug into my 19" LCD HDTV 720p and use it as external speaker instead of the built-in speakers. Any help is appreciated.
PS: please do not list a 5.1 speakers w/ no decoder, unless you can recommend a good combo, decoder& 5.1 speakers.

I picked up one of these for around the house...

It is 5.0 surround sound in a single station that does a decent job of 3D and have been surprised by the sound it produces. It also has a sub-woofer out jack and pairs up with a small powered sub-woofer nicely for true 5.1.

I bought it originally for the same reason... It was easy to move about until we decided on the best permanent location in our home for a new HDTV.

After that we settled on a DVD player/theater sound solution and I have since used it where ever I wanted portable sound. (garden bar-b-q's, working in the garage, etc) with an iPOD, N800, or whatnot to drive it.

Right now it's connected to my desktop where I can swap the mini jack to the N800 while I'm setting up a WiFi stream.
