Good deal for budget Onkyo receiver?

[aircooled]

I may have talked myself out of a "Home theather in a box" since I already have a good DVD player and some decent speakers.
How's this look for a budget receiver:http://www.crutchfield.com/S-tAPNAMA7V4...i-bin/ProdView.asp?g=10420&I=580TX8211
Anything better for that budget? any better vendor?
I've already got a set of Yamaha SP-201 speakers to get me by for a while (2 front, 2 rear, one center and a sub).

No, that's a 2.0 receiver not 5.1/6.1. You want an Onkyo 503 from Crutchfield, onecall or jr.com depending on which is cheapest shipped.

The 503 also has 5.1 analog in if you want to hook up a PC for surround sound gaming

Just get a Refurb Onkyo 780 Setup. 7.1 With a Nice receiver. And its almost like your getting the speakers for free for what The complete cost is.

I'll have to keep my eyes in the Hot Deals forums for a bit.

The receiver that comes with that is pretty much the Onkyo 503.

CC had the 503 on sale for $199 a little while ago along with Pioneer 515 for $150 and the Panasonic digital XR55s for $230-ish.

I just bought a TSR-X702B refurb for $399 at JR.com. A bit more but still a hell of a deal.
