Please help select system

Hey-
A friend is looking for a home theater speakers and a reciever- but has set a limit of a grand. I am thinking of suggesting the following system- http://www.hifi.com/products/product...Eprd_id=125741 . What do you all think? Seems like a very good value to me. I would appreciate any responses, as well as any suggestions.
Thanks-
Brad

It's not a good value. A MUCH better system for less than $1000 would be:

2 pairs of psb Alpha A/Vs
psb Alpha Center
Sony WM-40 sub
Onkyo 494 or 595

My thoughts exactly. Other brands to consider:

Low end Paradigm speakers
Low end Denon receivers

Also excellent suggestions. One of my friends just picked up a Denon 1602 over the Onkyo 595 because he wanted an optical output for his MD recorder.
