best bang for buck on used ht speakers? maybe b&w?

Ok I might have been going about this ALL wrong. lets start with what i have... b&w cdm 1 bookshelf fronts, a bad center, b&w 602 bookshelf rears, cerwin vega sub. pioneer elite 92txh with pre outs for additional amps (if needed) i was just thinking about upgrading to the matrix or first gen nautilus speakers. maybe floor standing or towers. before i get too caught up in the excitement of buying, what are other good alternative speakers or set ups? towers needed? book shelf and a better sub just as good? what is over kill for only ht setup? i was thinking b&w 800, 801, 802 overkill? what ya got?

cdm1 rears should be fine, but 703 would work too not necessarily overkill. personally, would trade 703 for more powerful amp and perhaps run the 2 fronts off them...good 2channel plus more powerful 5.1 channel?

well... i own the cdm and 602's.... was going to craigslist them and the one that doesn't sell i was going to keep.... but then i found the 703 for 1,000. figure i could get more than that out of them if i do not like them.... i am bi camping the fronts for right now... about 260 watts per speaker for right now....
