I was shopping around for a decent 5.1 HTIB system and decided to go with the Yamaha YHT-380 600watt 5.1 system. According to members at the AVS forum its pretty decent for the price; speakers/sub are ok and the receiver is actually pretty decent.

The online price is listed as $330 + tax, shipping is $30-ish but free in-store pickup. At $330 it is a ok deal considering what you get. However when I went to go checkout at the San Diego, CA (Mira Mesa) store it rang up as $207.99!! I also used some gift cards to bring the price down even further. For this price I think its HOT considering it includes a decent set of 5.1 speakers and actual real receiver instead of those all-in-one combo reciever/dvd packages. For the price it can't really be beat. No HDMI inputs is the only main con I can think of, but for this much I wouldn't really complain.
This type of system would be nice for a small/medium sized room, overkill PC/Console gaming speakers, etc. If you do decide to pickup this system I highly recommend you get a spool of 16 or 14 guage speaker wire as the included speaker wire is only good for dental floss.
