I'm completely new to the home theater sound world, and so I was wondering: is it better to get a premade HTiB set, or to buy separate AVR and Speakers? I am operating on a super tight budget (looking to spend around $300 or a bit more on just the speakers/AVR), and so here's what I've reached after some research: Denon AVR-1312 ($165 @ www.woot.com) + Yamaha NS-SP1800BL 5.1 Speakers ($150 @ http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-NS-SP1800BL-5-1-Channel-Theater-Speaker/dp/B001AVRD62/) Are these compatible/good? or Onkyo HT-S3400 HTiB ($250 @ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=82-120-182) All the reviews in the past month have been 1 egg saying the product was DOA and neither Newegg nor Onkyo will help. With a 4-egg rating of 141 reviews, this seems strange that all the 1-egg reviews are clumped together recently (seemingly after this price drop). Should I be worried/wary? Thanks!
