I'm a total audio noob and would like some advice on speaker selection. The setup will mostly be used for Movies + Games + TV
I have a HT room 20' deep x 14.5' wide. I was planning on running a 5.1 set up. Here's what I have so far:

AV Receiver: Denon AVR AX4000
Sub: Episode 300W12" Sub

That leaves the in wall speakers. I wanna run a LCR and 2 rears.
I was hoping to spend < $1000 for 5 in wall speakers. Which do you guys recommend.

Current considerations:
Paradigm AMS 250 ($220 each) x 5
SpeakerCraft LCR 3 ($190-$220)
Definitive Technology UIW 55 or 65 ($179 - $259)

If you guys have any others that i should consider that's best bang for the buck, I'd love to hear your reccomendations. Help this noob out to make a good one and done purchase. I don't really have an option to "add on", so i'll have to try and get this right in one shot.

Thanks in advance!

I'm using in-wall SpeakerCrafts for rears and surrounds. They are gorgeous speakers, but I don't give them enough use since they aren't LCR. I've listened to the Paradigms, but not the DTs. Do you have a a place you can go listen to them?

If you are on a budget, I've heard very good things about HTD.com in-walls as well as Monoprice's (the former being the better of the two and at half the cost of what you're currently looking at). I think that's where you'll get the best bang for your money.
