This home theater system comes with the receiver and speakers. It is also rated pretty well (4 our of 5 stars from 61 reviews). We just recently purchased a 7.1 speaker system from onkyo and i am impressed by the sound. Note this is an upscaling receiver ( Will take hdmi inputs and upscale to near 1080p or 1080p passthrough). Most low end upscaling receivers will run you about $350 + Just for the receiver. This also supports the lasted 1.4a HDMI input/ouputs for 3D Blu-Ray players and other 3D Technology. This is one of onkyo's top of the line systems.

Product Description
Sitting at the top of our range of home theater packages, the HT-S7300 combines today’s essential A/V technology with proven Onkyo amplification muscle. Four HDMI 1.4a inputs allow you to hook up all your high-def devices and enjoy spectacular widescreen 1080p resolution on a compatible display. Non-HD video sources, meanwhile, can be upscaled to 1080p via HDMI with Faroudja DCDi Cinema. HDMI 1.4a not only provides a handy Audio Return Channel from your TV’s tuner to the receiver, it also gives you compatibility with upcoming 3D video content. Among the other connectivity options on the HT-S7300 is a Universal Port for the included Dock for iPhone/iPod. The Onkyo name is synonymous with quality sound, so it’s no surprise the HT-S7300 packs stellar audio processing: lossless HD codecs from Dolby and DTS; Dolby Pro Logic IIz for overhead ambience; Audyssey room-correction; and specialized audio modes for gaming. Rounding it out is a speaker set highlighted by a mighty pair of floor-standing front speakers that excel every bit as much with music as they do with movies and games.
