Hey,
I guess i'll share what i've put together for my parents about 4-5 years ago. They're huge music/karaoke buffs (most asian parents are!). And yes, they had a good year when we purchased :x
62" Mitsu Rear Projector TV
Oppo 971H Upconverting DVD Player
Other Misc hardware..
HT Speaker Setup:
Harman Kardon AVR 635 7.1 Receiver
Ascend CM340 Fronts and center
Ascend HTM200 Rears
HSU VTF-3 MK2 12" 350 Watt Sub
Karaoke Setup:
Crown XLS-602
BMB CS-500 Fronts
All in a custom built cabinet housing. It screams for action movies! Anyway, its' pretty cool to know that we have an OPPO employee here. Maybe some 'special' pricing on some players for us BAICers?

I have a HK AVR 247, both sets fit my budget. the Polk are about $200 less.

alright here is my crap
VIZIO 42" LCD VU42L
playstation 3 hdmi
xbox360 hdmi (HD dvd drive not pictured)
wii
cerwin vega towers E712
cerwin vega center channel (PIA to get model # haha)
jbl bookshelf rears
jbl 15" subwoofer (in the coner)
INSIGNIA reciever IS-HC040917 100wX6(its 600w and at 120$ it does good enough)
i would love to switch out to a more upscale reciever and a more clean sounding center, but for now this setup takes you right into the game.
oh and see that huge picture on the wall... well it doubles as my projector screen when fliped around for when we need to get some 6 player action on halo 3
2players on the vizio 4 on the projector MUHAHAHA!

That setup is better than what I have at home, and if it's your first surround sound setup, would be a great setup with decent sound. It's a fine match to the HK. Again, if this is your first surround sound setup, this is just fine.
I always give customers this advice: buy whats in your budget. There is no reason to break the bank for gear. how big is your room?
