I've been trying to decide for a while between the 5500 and the 5300, and now that I have a good paying job, money wasn't influencing my decision too much. Moreso, I went with the 5300e for space saving, plus, who wouldn't like saving $180?
For anyone who is considering upgrading to a (new) 5.1 setup, just thought I'd let you know that there is a $50 rebate on these puppies! If you find them on pricegrabber, the link to the $50 rebate will be close by. Plus, there's even a $5 review rebate if you're a pricegrabber member. Getting such a system for $77 from newegg was too sweet a deal for me to pass up. The rebate isn't good at a bunch of retail places like best buy, but it seems to be good at most online dealers. I think it runs through June 15th or 19th.
I hope to have the system sitting on my doorstep when I get home from school today. I'll post a review when I can, not sure when that will be though...gotta get paid .
