Looking for best sounding satellite/sub system


was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience with the current satellite/sub systems on the market and do any of them do theater and music well? I already have an extremely nice, dedicated 2-channel listening room. so this will be for movies most of the time, but occasional listening to music. the other big factor is that the speakers need to be the small/wall mountable type. just wanted to see if you true audiophiles have been down this road before? price really is not a factor. thanks for any advice

I sold my Martin Logan Quests and Logos and EAD PM 2000 and recently purchased Anthony Gallo Due's for right, left and center and Gallo's larger version of the nucleus called the A'Diva's for surrounds driven by a B&K AVR 505 and supplemented by two Energy S8.2 subs controlled by the B&K bass management system. I have been stunned, frankly, by the quality of the sound and the seamless integration of the subs with the other speakers.
The Gallos are wall mountable in at least 3 configurations or can be mounted on the table stands (included with the speakers) or optional floor stands. Gallo recommends wall mounting for best bass response. I have been quite impressed (and mine are stand mounted and have not completed the recommended 60 hours of burn-in time). The whole sub/sat package fills my less than ideal 20'x20' room with wonderful sound and the sub/sat system was quite reasonable. I would recommend visiting www.soundvideo.com (if you don't have a local dealer). Ask for Steve Harralla. I have dealt with him a number of times and find him to be very good at putting together systems based on individual requirements (i.e. room parameters, sub/sat integration, budget, ultimate sound, custom installations, etc). He is also a pleasure to deal with. Good luck and good listening. Regards
