Speaker setup for HT in $2000 range

I would go for the Paradigm Reference series. They are voiced together for HT, don't cost the earth (many different models to choose from for all budgets), and sound simply amazing. One of the best features of these speakers is that they are VERY easy to place in a room for some reason. I have heard them sound great in huge rooms and they sound great in my little one. Good luck - Arthur

My room size is 15 feet wide by 30 feet long.

I compltetly agree with the paradigm suggestion. I would definetely go that route. Reference or monitor line - they are both excellent.

I have a similar size room (16W x 27L x 10H) and I'm using Def tech BP8 front CLR2002 center B2X sides and SM350 back with a PF15 sub. Very nice results (and you could use the SM350 for your other room)

Well not the "Best" speakers, I am currently running my Denon 3803 with the Klipsch Referance 3 setup. Very easy on the Denon @ 92 to 98 db and for home theater the sound and dynamics are fantastic. Best part is I have less than 2 grand into the system WITH the receiver.....which left me some $$$ for a nice display.....just another thing to think about??
