You might want to check out some of Definitive Technology's active speakers. They have had some decent reviews. I personally haven't heard them, though.

How would you control volume with such a setup? What other issues would one likely encounter? Thanks - JJJ

I'm not sure if you could control the volume in that scenario, unless the DVD player included some control (which I know mine doesn't, even though it does have a Dolby Digital decoder).

If the variant of the ICBM that David Olstein proposed here existed, you could use it since he includes a volume control for each 5.1 input... Otherwise, I'm not sure what you'd have to do.
