Sir,
It may be better if you will post the exact brand and model number of your speakers ... from what i'm reading, it seems that your speakers are 5.1 PC speakers .... what are the input ports of your speakers - besides the RCA's, is there an spdif (digital coax or optical input)?
If those are just PC speakers, I wouldn't recommend connecting those to an AVR - even entry-level AVR's. It would be best for you to purchase another set of speakers for the AVR if you really want to get one ....if there are budget constraints, you can start with two speakers, then just add the center, rear, and sub when you have the budget.
