    You can get a separate tuner really cheap. Really cheap at pawn shops and second hand shops. If you can't afford the tuner you can't afford Monoprice cables to connect it and a zipcord for the antenna.

    Nope, tried but can't do it... only ended up with a "detailed" system.

    Assuming you pay list and don't negotiate, that leaves you with @ $250 for speaker stands and cables.

    Those Tekton Lores have some nice specs. 98db sens and a large 10" driver. Ever hear a pair? Only 1k too.
