It sounds like he needs a source too. I picked up an open box Toshiba dvd player at Best Buy for 14.99. It does a pretty good job for what it is.

I would look at a Sherwood receiver if stereo is what is wanted. This would keep within budget and it really is a decent receiver for the money. We have had one for a few years now. My son beat the heck out of it and it just keeps running.
