speakers in a bad room

well mr. Gregm. you would be surpriced over the prices on stereo equipment in denmark.its normally double up us prices.
i need a set of speakers, a cd/dvd player, amplifiers, tuner, plasma screen, cables. not surround sound.
i will see if i can get a carpet on the floor and some absorbments on the walls.

i will get a rug in front of the speakers, but is that enough ?

thanks for all the answers. about if it is a small or big room, it is more than double the size of what i have now.
the ceiling heights is exactly 10'.me and my wife live in denmark right now, but are moving to her country next year.the new house are ready, so i am making plans for bying new setup, because the one i have now is for 240v. so i am gonna start all over. i have aprox. 30000 us for the new setup.
