I am looking to purchase a decent audio system for my home. It will be going in a relatively small area but the area is open to the living room below (it is an open upstairs landing above the living room). <br> <br> I've been looking at some reviews on CNET Reviews and found <a href="http://reviews.cnet.com/Onkyo_HT_S790_black/4505-6740_7-31930511.html?tag=pdtl-img">this set</a> to be highly recommended. I'm trying to keep it under $500. <br> <br> I will primarily be using this for movie watching, playing video games, listening to music. I'm more than willing to consider a non HTIB set but I feel that it would be less of a hassle to stay with this sort of bundle. I'm certainly not limiting my options to Onkyo either, but I have heard good things about them from multiple sources. <br> <br> Am I on the right track here or are there better options in my price range? Should I go with an HTIB or buy individual components? Is Onkyo really as good as I've been hearing? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2007:site.59162 Wed, 21 Mar 2007 18:14:30 -0800 audio home HTIB speakers system theater Nihility
