2k budget for home theater

I was thinking of spending 6 to 800 on a receiver and jbl lsr308s in a 5.1 setup. Can I do better with 2k? This is for strictly games and movies. How far can my 2k get me ? I can stretch it to 2400.00. What do you guys suggest? 2 fronts a center receiver and sub for 2.4k possible or anything better than jbl lsr 308s? Thanks!
