Any good HT setups from Best Buy?
What are some good HT setups at Best Buy? I have a Sony WEGA KV32FS100 flatscreen TV connected via AR component video cables to a Toshiba SD-3900. I heard that the 6.1 setup (HTS760) is good, but may be only available at Circuit City,.. would Best Buy have something similar? I just want the speakers, recievers and subwoofer, I don't need the DVD-player as most of Best Buys packages include this.
Thanks!
Thanks!

The only thing that we carry is by Yamaha that does not have the dvd player built in. I work at best buy and agree with the above posters that you need to get the Onyko system that Circuit City sells.
Edit, we do have a sony system as well, but it really sounds bad. Avoid avoid avoid.

this Pioneer is actually a pretty good system All of the speakers are real two way designs and made of aluminum. (I am biased though)
The system was retail for $999 and now its $499. It has a dvd but its a great player with progressive and mp3. You could just sell it or use your other player in another room.

Why just BestBuy?
Also go listen to the Kenwoods. Their old system was good. But the problem with all of these it the store wants lower price an dbigger margin - which leaves less for the speakers because the electronics are already as low as they can get. Be really careful with these systems. A few are ok but almost all are just crap.
