Well its xmas and my mom planned on getting my dad some lame present but i thought we should get him a surround package for the big screen in the living room. I had a thread going debating whether or not the new Logitech z-5500's or if home theatre in a box (HTIB) would be the better choice.

A few things to keep in mind;

The room is approx 24x16 (totally guessing)

Im not looking to spend anymore then $550(CDN) on a system (were not rich, so no harmon kardon full size floor spks) ~ heres an example Yamaha YHT150S Home Theatre System (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&dept=10&sku_id=0665000FS10043388&catid=19701&newdeptid=10)

So which one would be better?

z-680's at tigerdirect for 229.99.. almost the same as the z-5500's but FAR FAR cheaper and sound just as good.
