So my 7.1 receiver just died. Not really looking to spend a ton as I will need to plan and budget for it. Man TV Sound sucks…

Now I have the idea in my head to maybe trim down my setup. It was by no means a crazy setup, just 6 small satellites, center channel and a sub, but I have enjoyed it for at least the last 10 years. Though I never really get to use the theater system as it was intended (because of the kids) and having to always use it on low volume so don't really get the full effect of it, unless I am home alone.

My brother has a soundbar and it sounds great, so I'm leaning towards one.

I may be able to get my hands on a 5.1 receiver my dad has lying around, so I may see if I can get a hold of that too, but if I gotta get a new setup, What are your thoughts on true surround vs soundbar?

Found an lg soundbar with sub for $40 so went with that. For the money, could not pass it up. And if I don't like the thing I can easily resell it.
