Quintet SL + RW12d + SC-05 = Odd Combo?

I'm looking into getting a new Home Theatre setup. I get some great deals on a lot of products through work so a lot of my decision is based on price. Right now i'm looking into getting the Quintet SL system, the RW12d sub and connecting them to the Pioneer Elite SC-05 Receiver. First off, is this an odd combination? Will i regret some part of this combo? I'm quite the audio noob :)

Also, could someone reccomend some stands for the Quintets?

You can get a Quintet SL at Vann's right now with a free sub. I'm looking at it hard. I'm setting up a second setup for a lake house we're buying. My current setup has the older LCR speakers as fronts with a C2 in the middle, S2's in back, KHC-6 ceiling speakers on the sides and the older KSW-12 and I'm very happy with it. I'm thinking a Quintet SL with a Synergy Sub would be fine. you probably don't need to spend the extra for the RW sub. a KSW-12 or a SUB-12 would be fine.

My problem is how to expand the Quintet (or Cinema 6) to 7.1. the problem is compounded by a possible need to center mount the side speakers. I don't need in ceiling speakers just something that I can mount there. so is there a surround speaker in equivalent price and quality that would work?

I managed to ceiling mount my S-2's although at home the ceiling is plywood and not drywall so there was minimal danger of the bracket falling. I forget where I got the brackets though and getting them to attach to the keyholes was a bit of a bother. but S-2's seem like overkill for a Quintet or Cineman 6 system. anyone got a recommendation for another pair of speakers to fill out a Quintet SL or Cinema 6 to 7.1?
