home theater in a box?

I need to get a gift for a family member who is not an audio enthusiast but wants a home theater starter. Smallish room and I want an idiot proof set up for about 1,000$. I have looked at the sony, polk, boston acoustics and others, but I am so far removed from this midfi arena I am very hopeful someone in audiogon nation has some experience here. thanks.

Aego...I believe made by acoustic energy...regardless i heard it on a fluke while looking for other stuff-for the $$ it was impressive.

Good Luck,

I also like Vader007's idea. Go to your local Best Buy and check out one of the Yamaha systems that they carry. You should be able to get an A/V Receiver, a DVD Player, and a Speaker Package for around $1,000.00 or so. All you need to do after that is add a TV.

Good Luck.

I too wanted the Aego 5, i hear a lot of good things about it. The only problem is that Acoustic Energy Loudspeakers are hard to find. If i were you, i would get the system and the processor. Good Luck!!!
