After doing a bit research, I'm thinking of the following combination:

orb mod1 front (or should i stay with as-b1/b2?)
athena as-c1 center
athena as-b1 surround/rear

still need to decide on receiver and sub, if needed?

What receiver would you recommend from best buy?

What are some suggestion? thanks

How does the Rocket Tyke 5.1 compares?

You'll really like the Orbs. You could get the Orb stereo system that has a sub and 2 satellites, and use the Athenas to fill that out into 5.1. That way, you get a really great sub, and aren't paying as much for the satellites if you purchased them separately and a sub separately. Alternatively, you could just go Athena all around, since Orb all around doesn't seem like an option b/c they aren't sold at BB.

My other option is the Athena Mica vs Rocket Tyke. How does these 2 compares?

The Athena Micro system is on sale for $249 in black right now at BB. You'll definitely save a lot of money. Don't know if they actually sound better than the Rocket Tykes though.
