Good Home Theater Surround Speakers????

I'm looking to upgrade my home theater system, and am looking for information on some great home theaters speakers. Luckily the adult industry seems to hav tons of audiophiles and former audio-industry workers in it, like myself, and I bet I can get some good advice from ya'll...

Right now I've got a pretty solid receiver with dolby 5.1 ... with a rating of 200 watts/channel rms all the way around and, of course, a sub output so I'm just looking for speaker systems.

One set of 5.1 speaker systems I'm looking at is:
http://www.harmankardon.com/specific...%2014&sType=C#

In case the bbs software chomps the link, go to www.harmonkardon.com and look for the HKTS 14 speaker system.

I've heard Harman Kardon make a solid piece of equipment, but my experience is in car audio ... mbquart, rockford fosgate, etc. are the brands I know. And as much as I wish I could.. I really can't justify a $40,000 McIntosh system right now... my neighbors just wouldn't put up with their cabinet doors falling off.

I'm pretty sure I'm not interested in Bose systems ... they sound very muddy to me and I haven't ever been that inpressed with the sound quality.

Unfortunatley right now I'm stuck with a very bose-ey system ... with lots of highs and mid-range and plenty of lows, but no mid-bass or lower end mid-range.

Can anyone offer some links of high end equipment that I'll be pretty satisfied with? Again, I'm only looking for speaker systems right now.

Satellite speakers are cool and all ... but they lack the mid-bass (and I expect I'll find the same problem with that hk system I was looking at) ... does anyone know any speaker systems with 5 to 7 inch drivers rather than a couple of 3 inch drivers?

thanks!
