Hey - I'll jump in for Brandon:
No Bose, my friend. Don't believe the hype regarding Bose. They spend incredible amounts of money on advertising, yet fail to advertise in places like....Stereophile. Isn't that strange!
Yeah, first off you need to give us a rough estimate.
Next, you should peruse this very board (already some answers here!)
Then...if that doesn't steer you in the right direction, FIRE AWAY!
I would also recommend
http://www.audioasylum.com if you have some time for browsing postings. Lots and lots to learn there.
By the way, do you just want speakers, or a whole system?
