Best 5.1 complete system under $3000

I want to buy a 5.1 system for under $3000 and need help.  I need everything as I am starting from scratch so everything has to be included in the price.  I will use it for both music and TV.  My favorite music that I love to listen too would be yanni's live concerts. I believe there is nothing like it.  Any suggestions would be very helpful.  I wish I could just go somewhere and listen but the only places around here have expensive systems.  Any help would be appreciated.  Currently I have Sony soundbar 5.1 system their top of the line which is good but it is a soundbar and I want better.  Help me out if you can.  Thank you.
BTW never built a home system and it's been 20 years since my last car stereo build.

A quality stereo will in the 3K range will blow any 5.1 system away- all day, every day
Why/How? Because good stereo speakers can project sound that seems to come from lots of places, although not behind you. And no music should UNLESS you want to be in the middle of the orchestra, which would create all kinds of ear brain issues
Yanni at the Acropolis is an amazing disc
