Small bottom to mid level home theatre

Hi,
I would like to set up a "cheaper" home theatre system in a small room that we have. The room measures 8'x8'.
I managed to land myself a gently used Samsung 46" 8000 series for $500.
I plan on running 5.1 using in wall and ceiling for all speakers.
The blu-ray is an Oppo 93 (recently purchased).
I am considering either an Onkyo TX-509 receiver (soon to be released for $400) or a Marantz NR1602. The Onkyo specs looks good and it is only 13" deep (my cabinets will accommodate up to 14.5".
For in wall speakers i am at a loss. I have a bit of an issue with placement. The wall that the speakers and tv will be mounted on are about 20 degrees off parallel from the viewing position. I understand that speaker craft manufacture in-wall speakers..

I second the Gallo recommendation. Get some Reference AVs or the new Stradas and you will have *fantastic* sound. These will sound *much* better than in-wall speakers.

Mate these use to a nice Velodyne 8 inch sub and you will have a fantastic surround sound system for that room...
