[net.audio] JENSEN AUDIO+VIDEO SYSTEM

My roommate has just ordered the Jensen Audio+Video system which consists
of the AVS-2100 video tuner, AVS-3250 25" monitor and the AVS-5250 speakers.
I checked the system out at Phoenix HIFI where he ordered it and I thought
the picture quality was good but the audio seemed a little on the weak side.
The speakers were being powered by a used 60W/channel amp which also is part
of the deal he made.  The total price he paid for the above mentioned was 
$1800.  I feel the price is a little on the high side for what you get and am
much happier with my RCA colortrac 2000, Pioneer Receiver (no flames please)
and Advent speakers.  The picture quality of the RCA is just as good as the
Jensen and with the receiver and Advent speakers the audio is much better
(alot cleaner bass so I can blast the neighbors with Twisted Sister videos:-)
However, I am neither an audio nor videophile and my roomate doesn't value my
opinion.  Does anyone in netland have any comments about this Jensen system?

P.S.	I had a chance to check out Led Zep's "Songs Remain the Same" in beta
	hifi over the weekend - what a jam.  Its about time they released it.
