Just starting out... 2-channel home theater

Hi,
I am new to the forum. I live in Central America and I want to acquire a decent system to go into my 2-bedroom apartment. I looking for advice on systems. System would be used as two channel home theater but will mostly be used for music. Music source is ipod and will look at getting a turntable in the future. I do want good sound quality. This a 2-bedroom high rise apartment with lots of glass and marble floors an acoustic nightmare.
I also want to add two out door speakers for the patio area. My budget is $5000-$7000.
Thank you!

Velocityofhue's suggestion is a good one. Harley's book is a nice, basic intro and is fun reading. You have a decent budget and I assume that includes electronics. I would suggest you get a pre-pro with room correction. It will make a difference in your environment where you cannot treat the room. Lyngdorf Room Perfect and Anthem ARC are spectacular choices.

Lot's of great options on speakers and there are already some great recommendations posted.
