New Speakers - Help with others

[Brian408]

Hello everyone and thanks in advance for your input.

I recently purchased a new TV (Samsung 40 inch LED) and receiver (Sony STR-DN1000) and have been upgrading all my equipment for my surround sound in my bedroom. I currently have an old Samsung speaker system (connected to my new receiver) that came with an old player as an all in one. It’s a 5.1 set up but needless to say it’s not very good. I have a PS3 now as well.

I am on a budget and based on the reviews and recommendations of this forum purchased the Energy Speakers (no sub) today:

So my questions are:
1. What is a good Sub to go with the speakers (again on a budget) –hoping to pay about 100 for it…
2. What speaker wires and size do you recommend to hook everything up. My old ones came with the original HTIB

THANKS!
