First Setup..buying unless you guys have some other input.

Alright so get that yamaha 7.1, get 2 good fronts, and run my icon and leave the rest of the channels? If possible what speakers should I get? I don't have any place to make speaker cabinets since it's snowing and freezing outside, so I would like to buy some. What's a model to get.

For pre-built stuff I would pretty much just haunt Audiogon until you find something that fits your budget, or maybe is local so you can listen to it before you buy...

A decent 2.1 system is not overly expensive

Acoustic Energy is not a bad speaker at all for the money. I heard them a number of times a few years ago and almost picked up a pair for myself. That was the aegis 1.

You might also do an audiogon search for "triangle". You can sometimes find a good deal on those.

Edit: I figured I'd add PSB to this list.
