my wife and i are fineally getting out of apartments and buying a house. i'm would like some suggestions as to what would be the best speaker set-up for the space that i have.

at this point, i'm leaning toward a 5.1 m80/vp150/qs8/ep600 (epic 80-600) system because i like big full sound but am still completely open to suggestions from those that know more than me.

here is a picture of the space that i have at:

(i couldn't figure out how to link a photo, sorry). the yellow box on the image represents where the television and front sound stage will be placed - my wife has spoken.

thanks in advance.
