You would do well to get a 19 or 27 inch flat screen. Today, Sharp and Vizeo are declared the best bang for the buck under 0. I would like to add Insignia, very good picture, reliable, but crummy sound. Purchase a Bose Wave Radio, sit the tv on top, plug in the radio and blue ray player. The other options do not have a flat top, like the Bose. They would be Polk Isonic, and the Cambridge Soundworks clock radio. Don’t be fooled by the term clock radio, all each one can hold his own in a bedroom. lol.
The most inexpensive sound option is the Cambridge Soundworks, it may be the best overall value of the bunch. Unique to the others Cambridge uses a built in down firing subwoofer. The unit needs to sit on something to keep it from vibrating on a hard surface, the sound is stellar.

Polk Isonic is just wonderful. I love it. I just might wind up being this little old man with a bunch of speakers and radios in the garage with a story about each one of them. I listened for an hour in the store, like I had no sense and a lot of nerve. Marvin Gaye, Boz Scaggs, Chopin, Hall and Oates all I could do was shake my head in agreement.

The Bose Wave radio with the CD slot is nearly 0, the one without the cd slot is only a radio 9, but it has all the connections in the back to connect into a flat screen. If you have a blue ray player, the cd slot would not be needed with the Bose. I like Bose, I have one of each version, the oldest one was given to me as a birthday gift in 1997. It works within a similar set up, just described as you read this. Not a single problem. Works like a charm. The other one is now, 5 years old under similar duty. Perfect track record and outstanding speakers for small flat screen tvs.
Best.

do you already have a tv that you are happy with? if not, to get the best out of your blu-ray player you obviously need a HDTV with HDMI etc… Blu-ray outputs 1080p for full HD and 1080i for HD…. with audio, blu-ray outputs 7.1 surround sound, however like you said its not a living room… so i suggest a 5.1 surround sound system. (make sure you dont get the dvd home theatre! im sure you wouldnt but just incase)… i have 5.1 Yamaha and its great, with blu-ray ps3 and 1080i hd tv in my small room, does the job nicely.
