Home theater system with ProAc Response 1s?

I have a pair of ProAc Response 1s speakers, that I want to use as main speakers in a home theater system I would like to build. I hope to have a receiver/surround sound processor good enough to drive the ProAc speakers for music as well. So I am asking for your recommendation on the following:

receiver/surround sound processor
center/rear speakers
subwoofer

I used to drive my ProAc speakers with Quicksilver monoblocks and Counterpoint preamp. But I sold them all to simplify my life..

My budget is around $1000+/-500. Any recommendation?

budget is much to low. A good sub alone will be 800. With a need to match the timbre of the ProAc's, you need $1500 for the speakers. A good receiver/processor is $1200.

Thank you, Buconero117.

If I can stretch my budget to 3K, then what would you recommend?

I read here that Naim int. amp. may work well with ProAc Response speakers for music. I read that Onkyo int. amp. sounds tubey.. If I get one of those for music, can I add other pieces for a home theater system?
