My system:
Rotel Integrated Amp 
<http://www.rotel.com/products/integrated-amplifiers.htm>
Acoustic Energy Bookshelf Speakers 
<http://www.acoustic-energy.co.uk/Product_range/Reference_series/AE1_classic.asp> 
- Entertainment Room
Elac Sub <http://www.elac.com/en/index.html> - Entertainment Room
Turbosound Impacts 
<http://www.turbosound.com/showroom/impact80.2/index.html> in the 
kitchen on the B speaker channel
Slim Devices Squeezebox <http://www.slimdevices.com/pi_squeezebox.html> 
for a media source
Infrant ReadyNAS 
<http://www.infrant.com/products/products_details.php?name=ReadyNAS%201100> 
to hold on to everything and drive the Squeezebox

This is a system I have pieced together over the last decade or so.  I 
stay with 2 channel more for the simplicity of it than anything.  I 
spend 98% of my time at home listening and not watching and 2 sets of 
stereo speakers on the amp fills the entire apartment with nice quality 
audio at a nice level without disturbing neighbors.  Using the 
squeezebox as a source allows me to control the system from anywhere I 
have a web browser.

Remember, with audio, there isn't so much right and wrong as there is my 
way, your way.  I firmly believe a nice, noise free system is in the 
grasps of almost every budget.
