While Crutchfield.com is typically known for their car stereo equipment, I recently purchased one of the best 5.1 surround sound systems: the Energy RC Micro 5.1, from them $100 cheaper than I could find it anywhere else. Total price with the coupon was $379.

Enjoy!

This is a very good speaker system - highly rated, compact.

I just purchased this set online today:

http://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-RM7...3983013&sr=8-1

Are these Energy RC Micro speakers $120 better? Please note I have a very small place, and they will be powered either way by a Onkyo 607.

If so I will cancel my Amazon order...

Definitely. The Energy speakers are the best small-package sub-$1,000 speakers on the market today. Read some reviews, and you will notice that these speakers typically get the highest ratings from reviewers. In addition, these speakers have fallen in price drastically from when they first came on the market. They used to retail for around $1,000, while the Polk's used to retail around $400.

Your receiver is powerful enough for the Energy speakers. Just make sure that you get some good quality wiring. I purchased my subwoofer cable from Amazon.com (Belkin AV), and then picked up some 12-gauge speaker wire from bluejeanscable.com. Go with their cheapest cabling, it is more than sufficient and well worth the price. The white cabling is a nice option. I decided to go for it because I ran the cable alongside the wall, and this allows it to blend in. I didn't have the patience to poke holes in the wall and mess around with fishing wire. Having used them before I can confirm that they sell quality stuff.

EDIT: I believe that the Energy speakers are more compact than the Polks you ordered. My older system was a Panasonic HTIB, and the Energys are definitely smaller.

Just giving this a bump in case anyone is interested; deal is still valid.
