It's difficult to recommend for Canada as you guys get hosed on pricing. With your budget I'd probably do this:

Receiver $330: https://www.amazon.ca/Yamaha-RX-V379BL-5-1-Channel-Receiver-Bluetooth/dp/B00XL2702K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1462204660&sr=8-2&keywords=surround+receiver

L/R speakers $250: https://www.amazon.ca/Micca-MB42X-Bookshelf-Speakers-Tweeter/dp/B00E7H8GG2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1462204900&sr=8-2&keywords=micca

Not ideal but I don't see many options. Now, you can try this, same receiver but with this speaker set $260: https://www.amazon.ca/AV5HTB-Surround-including-Bookshelf-Loudspeakers/dp/B014JTYKA8/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1462205118&sr=8-5&keywords=fluance

That gives you a full 5.0 set of reasonably decent speakers and leaves him with just the subwoofer to complete the system. Fluance are made in Canada and come with a lifetime warranty.

>Hey guys. My 2nd sound bar but the dust so I'm thinking I should move onto a receiver with speakers.

Absolutely

>Best Buy has the Onkyo HT-S3800 5.1 On sale for $400 up in Canada. Is this a good deal? Can't seem to find many reviews on this product online .

I'd try to avoid most HTIB systems. They usually include small cube speakers with inadequately sized drivers and a small passive subwoofer that must take power from the receivers amps to power it like the one you listed has. I'd try for something like this 5.0 setup from Fluance instead and then just add an inexpensive closeout 5.1/7.1 Yamaha or Denon receiver and some 16 gauge pure copper speaker wire and a long well shielded RCA cable for the sub and call it a day. Much better speakers even though the setup doesn't include a subwoofer you still can add a powered subwoofer at any time of your choosing as the AV receiver has the full setup of connections for it and more. This will blow audio wise that Onkyo HTIB away and you can change out speakers and subwoofers at your own choosing.

  1. If using your current receiver, yes.

  2. Yes, a large improvement, especially in dialogues clarity and bass.

  3. That's fine, that just limits you to Dolby Digital 5.1/DTS 5.1 (no DD Plus or lossless audio like TrueHD/MasterAudio, but you likely won't be able to hear the difference). Since you have a game console, that's probably the best route if you care about Game Mode (HDMI 5 for game mode, HDMI 1 for HDR). However, HDR/Game mode should be the only picture differences.

    However, being in Canada does have some heavty restraints. What I would do is buy Fluance speakers (a Canadian company). Three options they have are:

I have had the Fluance AV5HTB 5.0 System that includes the center, rear, and books: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014JTYKA8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also have the bipolar surrounds: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MSQZO86/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

As far as the Fluance speakers, they sound great for what they are meant to do. I especially like the bipolar surrounds, they cover a much wider area than normal surrounds. The rears are a bit larger than others but still light enough to be wall mounted.

One thing to keep in mind is the break in time. It takes about 10 hours to fully break in the Fluance speakers. They don't suck before then, but after about 10 hours they really start to shine.

I run these Fluance speakers on a Yamaha RX-V659 with a pair of Pioneer HPM 100's I inherited a very long time ago and a pair of Klipsch KSF 8.5's I bought a long time ago with a Klipsch KSW 12 inch sub. I have had many compliments on my sound system and I really like my current setup. Give the Fluance a try, if you don't like them, return them and get the Pioneer set.

Here are some options to consider.

Packaged system

u/schmidty850 · 1 pointr/hometheater

Would you recommend going with the 2.1 system with these:

Elac B6's and the BIC F12

OR

WharfDale Diamond 10.1's and the BIC F12

or the 5.1 system with:

Fluance AV5HTB's and the BIC F12.

Thanks

EDIT: Added the WharfDale's since they are of comparable price to the Elac B6's and I've heard they are supposed to be pretty great
