I am going to spend a lot of money on the sound system inside of my house. The speakers for the deck is another story. I simply want something that will give decent sound since we probably will not use it much at all.

For my system, I am going to be using an Onkyo 805, but several people have recommended that I simply get another receiver (a cheap receiver) to hook up the outdoor speakers to. I am not sure of the advantage of this. I am maybe looking to spend $200 for the pair of outdoor speakers.

Does anyone have any good recommendations? The only time we will be using them is when we are entertaining guests outside or having a little cookout.

Thanks guys!
