Cheap (non-outrageously priced) speaker setup for living room

[gsiener]

So my parents would really like a new stereo type deal for their living room. Something unobtrusive like 4 small speakers in each corner of the (kind of large: 18x30ish) room. My mom kept asking about Bose, but their setup would be $1500. Even if it had miniature people playing music inside of it, I wouldn't payt $1500. So I started searching around for something a little more sensible, and the only thing I like is:

I know that stereo stuff from diamond/sonicblue won't be as "good" as klipsch etc, but my parents just want to hear music. They don't want to obsess over the minute details of a song.

Does anyone have experience in this area? Any advice?

I should mention I will probably order this thing in the next day or two (ho ho ho). Let me know what the experts think.

Thanks

PS I'm not going to consider two-speaker systems.

I recommend the Klipsch "Quintets"they are small home theatre speakers the same size as the computer ones.I just looked on *bay and a new pair was going off auction @$50 with 1hour and 17 minutes to go.I have had mine about a year and have been very pleased with them,there are brick and mortar dealers selling there and thats who I bought from including my 430 watt Klipsch sub to complement the Quintets.I mounted mine on the walls and they come in black or white.Good luck with your searchAlso you can do a review search @ audioreview.com on whatever you are considering.
