Consider that you've been using your current system for 10 years. You'll
likely use your new system for that long or longer. Spend a little
extra money if you can, it's worth it in the long run. Good sound can
really make the DVD watching experience.
Go to a few audio stores that let you listen to systems - got to regular
stores and maybe a higher end store just for comparison. Find some
things that sound good, then go on ebay or amazon auctions or
craigslist.
Even used, $300 is going to be tough. Good luck.
