For the money ...

I don't think you can really beat the sound quality and value of the JBL NSP-1 system. I use the N-24's as rear surrounds and have heard the N-26's, and they are quite good *for the money*. The best part is, mounting brackets are integral so no extra $$$ there.

Street price including tax (if any) & delivery is around $300-325.

Then for about $150, I would add this Sony sub, well regarded as an excellent value for its price:

That would leave around $250-300 for a receiver, which should buy a decent unit. Panasonic, Denon, and Yamaha all sell entry-level 5.1 Dolby Digital/DTS models in this price range.

As for cabling, just buy the decent stuff @ Radio Shack or Home Depot, which will be fine for this level of equipment.
