They run the gamut from a $160 RCA from Wal-Mart to systems costing thousands of dollars from a specialty Home Theater store. This unit is what most people would consider about the... read entire review

Simple setup
Decent sound quality with included speakers

Big value -- it's hard to beat!Onkyo continues to impress me with the value of their HTIB ("home theater in a box") products. For several years now they have sold some incredible packages, and the HT-SR800 is no exception. You get a powerful 7.1 channel amplifier, 7 speakers, and a... read entire review
- Pros: Great value, 1000W, not cheap speakers, old-school styling
- Cons: Bland and boring styling, tricky to find space for all the speakers, cheap remote/cables
- The Bottom Line: At under $500, you can't beat it. Replace the remote and speaker wire and 99% of people will love it.
