Reddit mentions of Definitive Technology ProMonitor 1000-2-Way Satellite or Bookshelf Speaker for Home Theater System | On Par with Any Large Speaker (Single, Black)

With a 3.0 setup you'll want decent sized speakers if you're going without the sub. Otherwise it's going to sound very thin from the lack of bass. Here are some setups that I would consider.

• KEF - KEF Q300 $400 You could also go with the Q100 $300 as they are smaller and less expensive. You might give up a bit of bass. However, they do very well for most music it's just the really low stuff you'll miss out on. Center - KEF Q200 $400
  
  
• DefTech - ProMonitor 1000 $220 ea Center - ProCenter 2000 $350 Probably the smallest speakers on the list. They do preform well but don't expect super bass from these smaller speakers. For most listening they should do fine.
  
  
• ELAC - UB5 $500 Center - UC5 $350 I haven't heard these but I know folks rave about them. The bass on these speakers is supposed to be very good so if you're aim is to avoid the sub these might be the way to go. These are rear ported to be aware of that if you plan on wall mounting.
  
  
• Cambridge - Aero2 $300 Center - Aero 5 $350 Again larger front ported speakers so no ill effects if you decide to wall mount.

You'll probably want to look into speakers then an amp in that order. Speakers tend to be the most subjective and personal piece of the setup, so get those squared away, then figure out what to drive them with.

For speakers, check out:

• Pioneer SP-B22 ($129/pair)
  
  
• PSB Alpha B1 ($299/pair)
  
  
• Wherfdale Diamond 10.1 ($299/pair)
  
  
• Klipsch RP-160M ($399/pair)
  
  
• Polk RTi A3 ($399/pair)
  
  
• DefTech ProMonitor 1000 ($439/pair)
  
  
• B&W 686 S2 ($499/pair)
  
  
• PSB Imagine Mini ($499/pair)
  
  I'm partial to Bowers and Wilkins myself.
  
  For integrated amps, look at:
  
  
• Pioneer Elite A-20 ($299 on sale right now)
  
  
• Onkyo A-9010 ($299 also on sale)
  
  
• Yamaha R-N301 ($299) or for a bit more A-S301 ($349)
  
  
• Cambridge AM10 ($349 – analog inputs only)
  
  
• NAD C316BEE ($379 – analog inputs only)
  
  
• Cambridge 351A ($399 – USB DAC)
  
  
• Harmon Kardon HK3700 ($349 – USB DAC)
  
  
• Onkyo A-9050 ($399 on sale – includes phono preamp)
  
  
• TEAC AI-301DA ($399)
  
  
• NAD D3020 ($399)
  
  With a simple computer and two bookshelfs setup, I really like the NAD D3020 or its bigger brother, the D7050. The Cambridge 351A is probably one of the better options in this range, however.
  
  Also, you might find you like powered speakers like Audioengine A5+ ($399) and HD6 ($749). AE has a great sound and features a built-in DAC. If you can demo them, see what you think.

I am currently running a U-Turn Orbit with OM5E to a 1978 Technics SA200. Speakers are a pair of DefTec Pro Monitor 1000 speakers and a subwoofer. Here is a link to the speakers.

Total roughly: $5,500

This is going to be a way better setup in my opinion. Now the reasoning behind why I chose this all.

Screen: Do you really want 135"? you will distort the picture more and it will not be as clear. The reason why i chose a grey screen is because of the windows behind your screen location. The grey will not reflect as much natural light giving you a better picture IMO.

Projector: Personal favorite, If you would like the Epson has good quality as well I physically have not seen it though.

Receiver: This receiver is going to preform way better with the speakers I have picked out. Denon specializes in movie like sound giving better lows and a cleaner sound in all.

Center, Front, Rear Speakers: The reason I chose Definitive Technology is because they have great sound quality and are meant for a more movie like atmosphere. The fronts I have picked out are their small tower speakers, If you want to step up you can do the 8040's which are a little larger or the 8060's which will probably be the largest I would recommend for your home theater location.

Speaker mounts, If you want to mount the rear speakers, those will work with the rear speakers.

Subwoofer: Now the reason why I say optional on this is because the tower speakers have two sub-woofers built into each. And they are fairly noticeable with the lows. If you want more lows I recommended a subwoofer up there for you.

I hope you enjoy the system I picked out, and it is right in the middle of your price range as well leaving you room for speaker wire and other things. If you want to physically hear these go to any Best Buy Magnolia store and just ask them, they should be set up at all locations.
