Answer 2

You may want to try Crutchfield or Best Buy and look for a HTIB (home theater in a box) package. You might get lucky and get a 6 speaker setup with a receiver and build-in DVD player for $300 to $400. All you will need is a TV and you're ready to go!!!

Here's a link to some HTIB systems in your price range. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-7TdkWIWp3qP/cgi-bin/ProdGroup.asp?g=37700

The first on on the page is a Sony which is not too bad for a starter system.

Good luck!

The cheapo abode theater in a container are all synthetic via the two a Taiwan or chinese language producer. all of them use the comparable layout/broking for the speaker. in case you learn heavily, it is not something better than a glorified low priced computer speaker made with paper cones. I definitely have a Zenith setup it became approximately $250 whilst i offered it, got here with DVD participant too. i'm no longer too overjoyed yet i'm using it as a working laptop or computer gaming rig. It does the interest.
