I've been talking about a home theater for almost a decade, now, and I've just bought my first home. It's time....

I've been auditioning to speakers at nearby dealers, but there's less selection in the area than I would like.

In any case, I'd like suggestions on areas where I could cut costs, other alternatives that I should really consider, or things I've missed completely (trying to get under $7000). All your help is appreciated.

What I'm seriously considering:
Mitsubishi XD300U Projector with pull-down screen - $2600+$300
Monitor Audio Silver series (S8*2, SLCR, Sfx*2) - $2450
SVSub 20-39 PC+ - $700
Pioneer Elite 55TXi - $900

I've listened to the Mirage 260's, and though close, I prefer the Monitors (quite a bit) for music; I've also listened to DefTech, but prefer the Monitors.

Is there an RPTV or plasma that'll be as nice as the XD300U, or a receiver that will drive the Monitors as nicely as the 55TXi?

I'm thinking I might HAVE to go with the Mirage 260's (I can get that 5-piece set for $1600) simply because of cables.

Thanks for all your help,
-Daniel
