Jeff, it's ok, tell the truth, you have like nine systems and must resort to naming them like children to keep track. Too modest. I really have to say, Kthomas has given very good advice. I second a line like PSB, and recommend you check into the the guy on ebay selling complete psb HT systems at a substantial discount to retail.
As for Bose, I find they aren't ordinarily worth talking about, other than how cute they are. The sound is riduculous I think, but can see where people might think it sounds good (I guess). I won't say more because they will try and sue my butt like they do everyone else.
Am gonna disagree with Doc up there, don't think there is a bias against HT operating in the forum any more than there are feelings on everything one way or another. I generally find good help is available on any subject.
Further, though the advice to watch the snake sellin cables is good (they really do try and git you on this), don't be discouraged from trying cables overall. I have found that some of the biggest bang for the buck improvements I have made to my system has come from cable upgrades; differences resolvable even at your price point. You don't need to go crazy, but definitely consider them.
