I've been out shopping, I love shopping for this sort of stuff

Ok, so I'e been into Sevenoaks Sound and Vision in Kingston and spoken to a gent in there who has recommended the following options to me for setting up my own home cinema system.

Speakers
KEF KHT 2005.2 (5.1)
KEF KHT 5005 (5.1)
Monitor Audio RS1 (for main front and CD use and when 7.1 is used)
QUAID IIL's (for main front and CD use and when 7.1 is used)
EPOS M5 (for main front and CD use and when 7.1 is used)

Amp/Receiver
ARCAM AVR 250
ARCAM AVR 250
DENON 3806

DVD
DENON 1920
DENON 2910

CD
ARCAM CD73T
AUDIOLAB 8000CD

Can I get some opinions/feedback on both using Sevenoaks and the options they have recommended? Some alternatives .. best place to get a good price etc ...

I am going in to have a listen to the following combination on Saturday and I'm thinking of getting them to setup a comparison as well.

ARCAM AVR250 (Amp/Receiver)
DENON 2910 (DVD)
KEF KHT 2005.2 (Speakers)
Monitor Audio RS1 (More speakers )
ARCAM CD73T (CD Player)

I should also mention that the TV this will be connected to is HD ready and has one input for it (and i found out afterwards that Sky will be broadcasting HD next year and will have a new box ...)
