SVS Prime LR and Prime C, and surround, plus an Onkyo rz50 AVR... IF you wanna go surround... add a sub later if you want and if appropriate
If you are content with two-channel, what about something like the Polk r700 speakers for 2k or less, and they have great bass so you won't even need a subwoofer, plus about thousand on a streaming receiver even something like the $700 Marantz nr1200 which has bass, treble, and balance knobs on the front, a tuner, a streamer, and all the requisite old-and new-school hookups... Or you can nab the Polk r700 for less than 2k as your LR, and get the Onkyo rz50 so you have the option to go surround later if you get that itch.
Myself, I went from surround system which I had for a long time, down to two-channel even for movies and tv and have been happier ever since. ... two channel video can be quite engaging with excellent speakers. This way, it's a simpler system and I could concentrate the spending on less stuff (and less clutter) but higher-quality stuff for the same amount of money... hence my suggestion of the Polk 700 + Onkyo 50 for starters with option to expand later if you feel the need.
