Storage is cool
I just purchased a new TV, and because the new set has 3D and DNLA I also updated my AV receiver at the same time to one which will handle HDMI 1.4. This leaves me with a spare 40" TV and Onkyo TX-SR606 receiver that I figured I'd stick in my bedroom. What it doesn't leave me with is any speakers to attach to the receiver, and my knowledge of speakers and audio equipment is vanishingly small.
My idea so far is to get a nice pair of bookshelf speakers with a good range and just use them in stereo (Maybe bi-amped, purely because I can, and it's 2 less channels going to "waste"). My problem is I have no idea what to look for when it comes to finding a nice pair of speakers.
So any suggestions on a good set of stereo speakers for gaming, tv, and movies? Or even just hints on what I should be looking for? I'll probably end up getting them from here since they're close and relatively inexpensive. The budget is flexible but I'd ideally want to keep it under 300 pounds (And I suspect I could come well under without really noticing much difference).
