Entry level Cinema sound package

    Hi
    Looking for some help (and pricing) on a entry level Home Cinema Amp -with USB or Ipod dock capability.
    The entry Onkyo or Yamaha look spot on or is it worth spending some more? How much would the dock be for these? Are there any amps that come with a dock or a usb port?

    The complete Onkyo package with dock looks a good option for me-any idea when you will have them in?
    My main concern on speakers is size-I dont have space for large speakers. I am considering taking a punt on 3 Orbs from the USA (Front L & R and Centre). If I do this I will need a seperate entry level sub.
    Perhaps you could recomed a full package as a alternative to the ORB speakers.

    Thanks

    You can get the SKS-HT528 and the TX-SR507 for an estimated £50 less than the cost of the S6205, the only thing you don't get is the dock which can be purchased separately at a later stage for around £80. I just decided to live without the ipod dock and use a regular 3.5mm jack -> RCA cable (€3) to hook up the iPod to the receiver..

    Thanks for that-actually have one of those cable so could go this way alright. Do you know if an amp with a USB port would deliver better sound than this cable can?
    Are you up and running with this kit? If so, have you any info on it that you could give me?
    Cheers
