A friend of mine is looking for a very simple 5.1 surround system for his family room. He doesn't want anything spectacular (they don't watch a ton of TV), but something nice for a Friday movie rental. He is buying his kids a PS2 for a game machine, and wants to use it as a DVD player (for his needs, this is fine). What he asked me is what mini-systems I would recommend to give him 5.1 DD/DTS surround (receiver/amp & speakers) for a very budget minded price. I buy components, so I have no idea what is out there today in the "all-in-one-box-HT" packages that Sam's or other stores sell. Can anyone recommend a reasonable system? He wants to be able to play CD's as well (which I believe the PS2 will do), otherwise it would need to have a built-in CD player and probably an AM/FM tuner.
