Surround Sound Home Theater Speaker recommendations?

I need recommendations for a Surround Sound Home Theater Speaker System. I need something that would sound great with all my components (dvd player, CD player, Receiver, TV, Satellite).
Model numbers or links would be good.

My first recommendation from a Home Theater standpoint, meaning primarily Movies and Video, but music will be played from time to time, would be Definitive Technology Bipolar Super Towers. http://www.definitivetech.com/loudspeakers/powertower/powertower.html
They have built in powered subwoofers and they are THUNDEROUSLY powerful! The speakers themselves are great looking, great sounding, and pretty well priced for the quality of the product!
If you want something just a bit more upscale, and PHENOMENAL sounding (but you better have an amplifier with GUTS) then look no further than Martin Logan Electrostatic Speakers.

These are my favorite speakers of ALL time! Yes, there are better speakers out there, but if you are so inclined, these speakers are nearly without comparison!

Sorry to inform you… Bose is not a quality sounding speaker system from a music, nor from a home theater standpoint. Having been a high end salesperson, I can tell you 1 universal truth, Bose is expensive NOT because it is quality gear… But because they have the best marketing in the business. Bose is one of the most profitable stereo companies on the planet, charging anywhere from 50-100% margin on every product. No other component company makes anywhere near that much profit. Check my profile for other answers I have given on this subject. We used to joke about Bose when we sold them (not to the customers of course) “No Highs, All Lows, it MUST be Bose!” They turn the bass up far too high, but because people tend to like music they can FEEL, the “Bose sound” has become acceptable to many people.

Hope this helps!!
