Default What would you buy with $1,000?

OK, it appears I am in line at work to receive a nice little bonus of $1,000!

So, I am now in the market for the following 2 items, and I am not sure if I should spend it on a new sub and save the rest for an awesome new AVR for later, just get an awesome new AVR now or get a new sub and a new low-mid level AVR, something simply better than my current AVR.

Current subs are 2 Polk PSW10's (would probably go to 1 sub with a good one)
Current AVR is the Onkyo 605

I really have no idea how to proceed based on having this "mad money" given to me. I even have the OK from the wife to spend it as she knows it is extra money I earned at work.

My tastes currently are for the following:

For an AVR - Pioneer SC-05 ($900 right now on Amazon)
http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-Elite-...3954731&sr=1-6
or
Denon 3808 ($1,009 right now on Amazon)
http://www.amazon.com/Denon-AVR-3808...3954636&sr=1-1


For a Sub - HSU VTF-2 MK 3 ($549 on their website)
http://www.hsuresearch.com/products/vtf-2-mk3.html
or
SVS PB12-NSD ($569 on their website)
http://www.svsound.com/products-sub-box-pb12nsd.cfm

I feel like I am 12 years old on Christmas Eve.....
