There's some nice sound bars out there, but I haven't seen one that suits me for under $500.

1. worth buying
2. should you still use the stereo speakers with them
3. Worth buying as a present?
4. is there a good one for ~150.....

the ones with built in subwoofers make me lol

na, not looking for one either one with and individual sub or no sub at all

get the whole setup for $150

seems like a good deal if you are wanting a low budget setup.

If you want something worth buying get a full receiver and speaker setup, I have had the same 5.1 reciever for years and couldnt be happier with it.

well the setup that is currently being used is a RCA 5.1 lol

This.

You'd even be better off with a proper pair of bookshelfs or towers and a good receiver. Then slowly expand your system to 2.1, 5.1 or 7.1 when you get the cash.

Never been a fan of soundbars or small satellite speakers...you have to realize that sound reproduction is regulated heavily by the laws of physics and you need proper speakers to reproduce music and movies in the best way.
