Will you be using this system to listen to music as well?
Personally what I would do (and what I have done) is use the $1500 to buy a pair of entry level front towers and a decent sub. Use cheapies for centre and rears if you really need surround sound.

I would much rather listen to a nice 2.1 system than a cheap all-in-one satellite speaker package.
