Tool fan needs help with speakers (and electronics)


Just like the title says. I mainly listen to Progressive Metal, Grunge and Classic Rock.

I'm looking to build a system with an emphasis on speakers. My all in budget is $5K. Will consider used. My listening room is 4,368 cubic feet. 21' (L) x 16' (W) x 13' (H). Tile floor. No acoustic treatments. Not currently interested in vinyl or tube amps.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

Tool, Alice in Chains, and Clutch are what I play most often. I also like some old country, some Hank 3 and some more extreme metal.
I will get flamed for bringing up Tekton but especially for the kind of music you like..... Tekton DI used and maybe something like a Parasound hint used would give you a kick ass system around 4kish. 
Also agree with some other posters in that room at minimum you will want to get a big area rug and some mild wall treatments.
