Hello all,

This is my first post here. I tried to get a music/home theater system set up in my room so I picked up a kenwood vr-306 receiver that I am happy with so far. For speakers I looked on craigslist and someone was selling a 5.1 divinci set up for $40. I bought them, hooked them up and now I want to cry because they are so awful.

So I know that I was stupid and fell for the white van speaker deal, and I feel a little embarrassed. However what can I do now? I was thinking about replacing the front speakers with something better and keeping the sub and rear speakers for now.

I know the sub is crap but I am trying to do this on the cheap and so far it is working for my room.

My questions are this then: What are some decent front speakers for under $100? Can I keep using the sub I have or will it cause my amp to short?

Thanks!
Nick
