$500 5.1/7.1 Speaker Separate System

[derekbannatyne]

Hi I've been searching for a while for some good deals on a 5.1/7.1 speaker separate setup for around $500. I came up with Onkyo TX-SR602 ($200), Dayton 12" Sub ($120), 2 pairs Polk R15 ($100) and Polk CS1 Center ($80(ebay))

I was ideally going to get the Athena Point 5, but can't seem to find a good deal other than $230 shipped from onceall (all local best buys are sold out).

Can anyone else reccomend anything similar?? Thanks.

HSU Ventriloquist 12 with stf1. Right now it's $500, but that leaves you still having to purchase the receiver.

If I was you, I think I would wait for this. You could save a little more. And I think it just might be worth it.

Why don't you just get the Athena 5's? What you have priced is $380 vs. $230 - ???
