Hi John..One of the main reasons I decided to go with 2 systems was that my family room (where the HT will be) is not the most optimum for speaker placement. Secondly, my wife is more likely to watch TV than I am, so it made perfect sense to move my music listening to another room.
So out of my $10K budget, Id' like to get something with $2.5K (for speakers/receiver/DVD) for the HT and spend the rest slowly on the stereo.
I agree that mini-monitors is the way to go, but it is going to be very difficult to wall mount them as there is not much of rear wall space to mount them. I have a TV nook on one side (with no wall above it) and I have a fireplace with tile surrounding it on the right with no place to mount the right speaker. This is the reason I was looking at small satellites.
I am not sure of the various wall-mounts available which look asthetically pleasing as well. Don't the wall mount require to be mounted on wall studs? That is a big problem with my rear wall.
