Soundbar or Speakers?

So my friend asked me about a surround system for his family room w/60" tv. After a discussion about his budget (small, around $300-400), he agreed that a soundbar would be okay. Not being extremely knowledgeable about them, I suggested a ZVOX 570 (I think), which is priced at $350 I believe, and has decent reviews. Then I read somewhere about using computer or small powered speakers, as an option. Some people were very enthusiastic about the sound being much better than soundbars. What would be the concensus here, if indeed there is one. Any opinions? Oh, I also supplied him with a powered sub, should he need it. His room is approx. 15x20 ft. Thanx. Dave
