Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I don't think it will be much cheaper than $200. plus.. it's not the speakers that are optical. The logitech gives you a pod that would process the optical output from the projector. You could do the same with some normal home theater speakers and a cheap reciever w/ optical inputs. You might be able to find a cheap htib if you wanted to go that route.
Man, this thread is confusing. Optical speakers? A projector optical output? LOL. Anyway, If you can go with less power the Logitech Z-5450s can be had for under $250 shipped.
