My parent's bought a 60 inch pioneer elite plasma and now they want a surround sound to go with it. Now, they don't want to buy the expensive stuff since they're going to remodel their house soon, and just want something for now.

Wow. Nice TV. The Onkyo S790 system has a good following. It can be had at Shoponkyo.com for $300 and change for a refurb. More for new. Check the S790 thread for opinions. I feel it has very good audio but beware the speakers are big and I think rather homely.

I know they're wierd like that. LOL

like I said before they just want to have something cheap for now until they set up a entertainment room and that's when they want to buy the nice speakers

I'm going to order the Onkyo HT 790-s Refurbished. Now, is there anything else that I need to buy for it? Since it doesn't have some stuff.

Buy a nice receiver.

Durabrand Lennox sound Home theatre system if the room is small or even decently sized

because that "little sub" might look wimpy but don't let it fool you. I learned the hard way.

especially the scene in chain reaction when the big explosion went off.

I dont even wanna mention the rock (I like bass)

I saw a nice sonyt system on amazon.com

Just be careful if you see a KOSS system (they catch fire) or so I heard
