If you can't hear the difference then go for it. However keep in mind the limitations. Upgradability; forget about it. Speakers not being the right ohms, limited inputs on the receiver; power output of the receiver.
IMHO the worst mistake is people would rather get a mediocre 5 channel system, instead of starting with a good 2 channel one and going up from there. You say $350 limit- how about $400? You can buy a decent amp and a good pair of bookshelf speakers. Next upgrade in a few months; buy yourself a better set of speakers and move the bookshelves to the rear. Then get yourself a centre speaker.
It all comes down to you get what you pay for. And the baby won't be a baby for ever; and there's times when she's at grandma's when you and Mrs. Fotze want to watch a movie.
