SPEC ME a good all purpose audio setup

[Rain Man]

Ive got about £230 for a decent audio setup

I was going to buy some logitech z5500's but i listen to a lot of music so im thinking some stereo speakers would be better?

i dont have a sound card im using onboard and im very new to the whole amps and shelf speaker stuff so what do i need?

I will be buying a sub at a later date for added OOMF

ive been looking at the home entertainment thread and people have all sorts of pre amps and crazy things

could you recommend me just a simple piece of kit which i womnt get confused with lol. Justbasicly an amp which can drive some nice speakers and a sub, maybe a decoder? floor speakers. thats about all i can get for 250 i think?

cheers
