Speaker setup for HT in $2000 range


I want to spend a maximum of $2000 for my HT speakers. I would like some advice for a five speaker setup. I just bought a Denon AVR 3803 and want to use 2 channels for my outdoor speakers and five for my HT. What is out there that I should look at.

I agree that B & W is not the "best" out there. It is pretty good though and I am very impressed with the 805s. I want to spend a maximum of $4000 on the whole system so I like your thoughts. What do you think of the B & W sub?
I have just found a pair of B & W 805s with a HTM2 center channel for $2100. Does anyone think this setup would be sonically superior to what others are suggesting?
I was thinking of not using rears with this setup. You are right on the subwoofer so I am already out of budget. Maybe I should increase my budget to $3000 to make it all work. Is it worth the extra money?
Your detailed response is very appreciated. I liked the "wife gave the line item veto" part best because I sure understand that. Thanks again.
