Your best bet is to buy a home theatre in a box. They start out around $199. That will come with everything you need and easy to set up. I dont think brand matters that much for entry level surround sounds, they are all about the same in sound quality. Samsung,sony,panasonic etc. It will come with 5 surround speakers, a subwoofer, uaually have dvd,cd and tuner built right in to the unit and speaker wires.Need help buying home theater surround sound?
For the inexpensive route ho with a good HTIB or home theatre in a box. I would recommend Onkyo, Samsung, or Panasonic HTIB's they have many different ones depending on how much you wish to spend and what you really want it for. I would also suggest a 7.1 unit since Blu ray will becoming mainstream in probably the next 5-7yrs we can start seeing way more movies above the normal 5.1 channel with HD sound and such. The more expensive way is of course getting a 7.1 HDMI receiver like Pioneer, Yamaha, Harmon/Kardon, Onkyo, or Sony. Then getting some decent speakers like Paradigm, Polk Audio, Athena, or Klipsch do not forget the Subwoofer very important it is essential for all your low sound effect's and booming.








Hope this helps recommend also that the speakers are not hardwired meaning you can change the wire if you want stay away the ones that do not have connections for the speaker wire.



It all depend on what you consider cheap. As for recommending what sounds good you will have to go and listen to different systems and find one that sounds good to you. I had a Yamaha HTIB before I upgraded and that had vey good sound. If you get a HTIB with a good receiver you can always upgrade to new speakers and still use the same receiver. Just remember that you get what you pay for.
