I haven't heard it, but I wouldn't be surprised if the answer is yes. You'll get more stereo separation, for one thing, and I wouldn't be surprised if you get better low end response out of two midsized floorstanders. It looks like it rolls off hard at 50hz: http://referencehometheater.com/review/sony-ht-ct260h-review/
The biggest benefit for something like that is space. If you're willing to set aside floor space for the speakers and shelf space for the receiver, a soundbar makes compromises for a benefit you don't need.
I have a soundbar, and can confirm that it sounds awesome. I know your budget is under 200, but I think I spent around $220.
In all it's glory
Maybe we just shouldn't even bother then?
This is the current sound bar we're using. Will a new 2.0 or 2.1 system at this price range even be a large increase in quality?

Or buy a soundbar with a wireless subwoofer and REALLY get a great experience for under $200 with minimal wires and easy setup. That's what I did.
Don't let audio nazis fool you - in the right room, you only need a soundbar. Of course there are better systems, but they are not for the average consumer.
I bought this for $200 (currently more expensive but just watch it, it flucuates) and it is perfect for my living room
Sorry to unearth this oldass comment. I have a question about sound bars. I have an old Creative 2.1 speaker set hooked up to my TV (this set: http://www.amazon.com/Creative-I-Trigue-Speaker-System-Black/dp/B0002SQ2MA/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top). I was thinking about this Sony soundbar to replace it, mainly because my girlfriend hates having to get up to change the volume, but I guess that'd probably be a bad idea based on what I'm reading here! That soundbar got pretty good reviews from CNET, so I thought it'd be worth the money. If I was going to switch to a 2.0 or 2.1 setup, how much would I have to spend to get something better than what I have now?
