Surround sound system help

[offspringfan23]

I'd like to get a new surround sound system, preferably below $800 including the receiver and speakers. Which is the best to get? I want to use them with, my consoles, blu-ray movies, and PC

There's nothing that comes close to what the Take 5s provide at $200. Now if you increase your budget, there will be a lot more options.

this looks like a great receiver:

I can spend a little over $900, this one is only $419.98 right now

Or this bundle:

Personally on a $900 budget I would recommend no more than $300 on a receiver, but if you are set on that receiver, I think I can squeeze in something for close to 1k. If you pick up the 507 instead of the 607 you can do it in $900.

507 for $320.

I've done some outside research, and so far these are the systems I'm leaning toward

http/www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002C73WSG/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk

or

http/www.amazon.com/Onkyo-TX-SR607-7-2-Channel-Surround-Receiver/dp/B001VEI2KO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1265947243&sr=1-1

with

http/www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XXO6GS/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk

which one would be better for everything (360 via component, Wii via component, PS3 via HDMI, Fios TV via hdmi, PC via hdmi and music)

 

[offspringfan23]

any opinions on those?
