I am trying to get a handle on all the variables in HT and it is hard. Anyway, a question I have is regarding speakers. I envision using my system 60%/40% HT/Music and wonder if someone can advise speakers that do this well. I am still figuring our my price range, but probably do not want to go over $800-$1000 for all the speakers, including sub.

For example, I fear getting many of the small five piece systems that I have seen, because when I play traditional two channel music, I doubt the little front speakers will do the music much justice.

Any suggestions?
