<font color='#000000'>I really love Monitor Audio's offerings at that price. You might try:
2 pairs Bronze B2's @ $299/pr
1 Bronze Center @ $249
Sub- Hsu Research VTF-2 @ $500.
This would be a rock solid combo for about $1300, maybe even a couple hundred bucks less, "street." It'll deliver the goods with MC music, Stereo and HT.
Don't take my word for it: TAS really raved up the Bronzes, listing them as a Recommended Component. And the Hsu has racked up a lot of great reviews as well.
Add a nice Denon reciever (or whatever you're planning on using) and voile- instant HT bliss!
