"If there's no highs or lows, it's gotta be Bose"

Nuff said ;)

I like Paradigm speakers myself. Hard to find unless you go to a real audio shop. VERY nice speakers for the money.

As for receiver, you can go nice (Technics/Harmon Kardon/Yamaha), nicer (Marantz, Onkyo) or really-nice-but-way-too-expensive (Arcam/Audio Research/or Boulder tube amps come to mind ;) (specs for this category can include neat stuff like 1000W <i>per channel</i> for the low low price of $62,000.) (that's just for the amp. Still gotta buy the receiver ;)

Frankly, unless you're an audiophile, I'd go for a set of infinity speakers, a nice-sounding sub, and a Pioneer or Panasonic receiver. You're not gonna hear the difference unless you're trained or very good, so why spend more money for the same (to you) result?
