I don't know if I should buy a system out of 1 box or buy a receiver and then speakers,blue-ray?
The room size 12' x 17'
I can spend around and up too $800
While HTIB aren't bad, compared to a separate receiver and separate speakers they don't perform as good and don't offer much value. Most HTIB are limited in inputs. For $800 you can get an Onkyo 605 and a set of Polk speakers and it will sound better then almost every HTIB out there. Plus it will give you the lossless audio from your Blu-rays.


OP: HTIB = Home theater in a box, in case you were wondering*
