Looking for best sounding satellite/sub system

was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience with the current satellite/sub systems on the market and do any of them do theater and music well? I already have an extremely nice, dedicated 2-channel listening room. so this will be for movies most of the time, but occasional listening to music. the other big factor is that the speakers need to be the small/wall mountable type. just wanted to see if you true audiophiles have been down this road before? price really is not a factor. thanks for any advice

Perhaps the Thiel Power line and their new sub-woofer?

I just received up my Dreamcatcher system and I was VERY impressed. Very musical, albeit right now I have only "tested" the satellites by hooking two of them up to my 2 channel rig. I love the way they look and the size of the individual speakers fit my smallish room perfectly. Not the cheapest 5.1 system but they might just be the right balance of sound quality vs. price for those that have been spoiled by a top-notch two channel system but don't want to blow the bank on HT.

Triangle Titus x5 + HSU VTF-2 is extraordinary for the $$. Surprising SPLs and scary realism. SACD, DTS, stereo - all way better than I ever thoguht possible. LOTS more $$ to surpass. Hear it before you judge it.

I agree, for $1,000, the Velodyne DECO seems very good. It was rated high in a satt/sub test versus the JM Lab Sib and Cub.
I am thinking about picking this system up from my local dealer for this price.
