OK, here's a completely different thought. Consider an Acoustic Energy Aego 5.1 system - see www.aslgroup.comThis is a 5 channel system complete with speakers, sub, & processor. I have the 2 channel version in my kitchen, and it's great! The satelites are roughly the size/weight of a baseball. (FYI: My other systems include stuff from Linn, Sim audio, Classe, etc., and I generally can't stand sub/sat systems with small speakers).
The Aego 2 was on the cover of Stereophile about 2 years ago, and got a rave review from Michael Fremer (sp? the analog guy). The 5.1 channel version received 5 stars from What-Hi Fi and won their shootout.
I think it's a little over $1000, and I'm not sure if the processor can take additional sources (for a tuner). And I'm not sure how loud it'll go in a room that big, but I seriously doubt anything else in that price range will touch it for music OR movie sound quality.
