cyberschoolmom Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 This is my second post here- I am new to this forum. You guys know so much!! Which surround sound system should I get my 17 year old son? I see 2 at best buy-the pioneer and the insignia. This would be for our tv that he uses to play his 360. We got the Insginia HD tube tv last year. Are any of these good, do I need anything else to go with them? I am tech dumb so know nothing about this stuff. Thanks for your help!

That said, I'd never go for an all-in-one home theater in a box because you're destined to get subpar components. You'll be able to get much higher quality (and more upgradeable) equipment by piecing it together. It depends on how picky your 17-year-old is. When I was that age, as a tech junkie, I would have much preferred my parents to buy me a decent receiver and simply stereo speakers and let me upgrade it from there rather than getting a whole HTIB which I didn't like. If he's not picky he'll probably like anything, anyway. CK
