Help me choose a Home Theater System

[Brohken]

Hey guy's. I took a long leave from this board... mainly because I started buying too many headphones.

Anyway I need your help once again, this time in the Home Entertainment Department.

So I'll tell you what I need and maybe you can help me find a good setup, because I know very little about what's quality.

Here's the major kinker: I have a ~$250 Budget, I know, I know.

Things I need in this package:

Combination Reciever and 5.1 Speaker Package
I need S-Video in/out
Preferably some inputs on the front.
I want prologic and all those goodies.
Something quality.
Preferably in a black color.
Good LCD.
If possible, with a graphic equalizer. (Where can I buy one seperately if not? and how much do they go for?)

I know the budget is not helping, but please do your best, and at least give me something that's the lowest price you can possibly find.

We got this Pioneer system that's pretty good, it was like HD540 or something like that. No graphic EQ, sorry, I doubt you'll find that in a 250 or under system.

For $250 you won't get much. Period. You can't really do anything worthwhile until you double your budget. For $499 you can get The Rocket Tykes + Kenwood bundle . Seriously, save for a while longer.

Cheers,
Jeremy

Thanks.... anything else a bit cheaper? I don't need huge sound here... I live in an apartment with old people always complaining so I just want a good clean sound that I can bump with a little. The reciever should have the appropriate inputs though.

*Edit* The system you linked me to doesn't seem to have S-Video in.

How about this:

Kenwood HTB-406

I'm not familier with this system. Your research would be better done Here.
