How does my set-up sound?


Hello everyone-

I've been looking on this site a lot just trying to make sure I get somewhat good equipment. I've sorta pieced my system together with good deals and stuff that I've had for awhile. Please let me know if the equipment I have will work well together or if there some of it that I should just replace. I'm not rich but more in the lower middle and I'm going for more home theater and music that I would usually be walking around the house listening to or for parties. Also this is in a not so large living room and will have to be placed above the fireplace and to the sides of it.

Equipment:
Pioneer Elite Pro-920
Pioneer Elite C-91
Pioneer Elite M-72
Pioneer Elite F-91
Pioneer Elite SP-91D
(1) B&W CWM 650 (that I planned on using for the center channel)
Monster HTFS1000
Panamax PMXMAX5100

Future Planned Equipment:
Pioneer Elite SP-99D(for surround sound)
Pioneer Elite DV-59avi (if I get a good deal)
(4) more B&W CWM 650
and honestly I haven't thought of the Subwoofer I want yet.

I am open to your suggestions because I really only know the little I read on here and other sites.

Thanks

Wes

I think the main thing I'm looking for is are the future pieces of equipment going to work well with the equipment I have? Should I buy another amp and split them between all 5 speakers? What kind of subwoofer would you all recommend seeing the budget of equipment I'm planning to get and what I have? Also, is the surround sound processor that I pick a good way to go? I really do trust the input I get off of this forum because most on here actually care about performance. Thanks again for the replies.
Thanks so much for the suggestions. I would have to say that I've been alittle busy shopping since I've posted this. I took your suggestion Whoaru99 and bought a newer reciever. And Krelldog I was looking at those subs, but ended up getting a great deal on a new B&W sub.

Heres how my setup is now:
Pioneer Elite Pro-920 (Plasma)
Pioneer Elite VSX-56txi (Reciever)
Pioneer Elite DV-59avi (DVD Player)
(3) B&W CWM650 (front/center speakers)
B&W ASW300 (Subwoofer)
Monster HTFS1000 (Plasma Surge Protector)
Panamax PMXMAX5100 (Stereo Surge Protector)
Sanus VMPLSb (tilting wall mount)
Monster MV quad (Speaker Wire)

Still Need:
Stereo Rack
(2) B&W CWM650

Now that I have all this gear I have a question about the wiring. I bought that monster speaker wire because of the super, crazy cheap price I bought it for. However its quad 16awg cable, So should I combine 2 wires for each speaker or just use 2 of the wires and leave the other 2 disconnected?

Thanks again guys.
