Logitech Z5500 vs Onkyo HTS3200 - are they that different?

Hello,

I am looking to get a receiver/5.1 speaker setup since my Digitheatre DTS is dying.

I have narrowed the choice down to the Logitech Z5500 and the Onkyo HTS3200. I am guessing the Onkyo is going to be slightly better in sound quality but having heard neither of them I am not sure.

Would it be worth spending the extra to get the Onkyo or is there not that much difference between them? Any other suggestions that would give an equally good quality of sound in a similar price range (£200)?

And finally, will I notice much difference between either of these kits and my old Digitheatre DTS?

Thanks

yeah your looking about £230 for the logitech, after reading reviews on various systems im gonna go for the onkyo htx 22hd, which is a 2.1 setup but should be much better than the logitech system, and can be had for around £260
