I'd say that getting a receiver is by far the best way to go.  Not only do
you get better amplification, but if you get the right receiver, it can
handle all of your input switching (both audio and video).  If you have
anything else to hook up (game consoles, cameras, etc), having a receiver is
incredibly convenient.
