The Bottom Line	While the sound isn't overpowering, the wealth of connectivity options and features bundled into the JVC TH-L1 home theater in a box makes it well worth the inexpensive price tag.	The Onkyo SKS-HT540 is the best-sounding surround-sound speaker package you can get for less than $300.	Thanks to its superbly matched satellites and subwoofer, Energy's Take Classic offers killer sound for a very affordable price.	The Onkyo SKS-HT870 speaker package offers up tons of performance for the price, but it's not the most stylish speaker system.	A versatile set of high-end 5.1 speakers, Logitech's newest flagship will handle with near-perfect quality as many audio sources as you can throw at it.
