Dolby 5.1 decoder-amplifier systems came out around the late 80's- mid 90's and can be found used for cheap. I got my newer Sony unit(I have another that is not used as an amp, but rather for it's built in A/V switcher) for only 12$ at a thrift.
Good quality A/V equip can be had cheap if one does not restrict it to being new, and keeps an eye out for it.
