Apartment Dweller's Paradise - The Ideal 2 ch. system?


We've had really great threads on Audiogon so far, so I'd like to keep the ball rolling.

One subject rarely covered enough in the music world are systems that are specifically for apartment dweller's. These systems are more modest in size and cost. Dolby Atmos? Forget-about-it!

How would you put together a system, under $10k, soup to nuts?

Should be the same as for a small listening room, yes? Might want to skip the double subs if you are on the 2nd floor though :)
I would start with Magnepans because their bass is less likely to disturb other apartments...an interesting thread on the technical reasons for this last year...
What about their total footprint though for the maggies? I mean, don't they need a lot of floor space in front and behind?

I'm waiting on someone to bring up small, horn loaded speakers like say the Hsu satellites:

or some of the Klipsch models.
Maggies are very easy to move, and then there are the Mini Maggies - I had a pair and they were quite good
