I'd suggest going inexpensive on the receiver (but do get room correction) and bias money to the fronts. nice if the center matches (may not notice if you dont match, I can tell but forget as soon as the movie starts) and save on the rears. my thought is the receiver will or may be obsolete in a few years. also if you get serious and get fancy with a 2 ch system or processor and seperate amp(s) it will be extraneous. good fronts now will be good fronts in 10 years. looking above you can see there's plenty of options or approaches to this problem. Nice sub makes a big difference in movies (more than all but the fronts in my opinion) but you can easy drop a big portion of your money there. you could go cheapest receiver that has correction and a good amp driving things so you are a bit future proof.
