I would go for the Radio Shack Minimus-7 speakers.  Current list price
$49.95 ( on sale in this area for $29.95) each.  These are probably
the most under rated, as far as good sound, speakers I know of.  They
are very accurate, give excellent imaging, and have a FIVE year
unconditional warranty.  When he blows the woofers, my son did three
times, take them back to the Shack and they put new ones in.  Then in
about 18 months give him a BSR or Cerwin-Vega subwoofer with built in
passive crossover ( approx $100 - $150 total) and he can get all the
bottom end his heart desires while still having a good set of satellite
speakers.

These are just my humble opinions mind you, but it is what I did for
my son (who is now 21 and still has the system).  As a matter of fact,
I have a set on the deck when I'm not listening to my Infinity RS-1B's.
