Best speaker option

I am looking for suggestions on which speakers to order. The speakers will be connected to a Denon 1613. The speakers would be primarily for home theater viewing (at least 75%). Initially I am just planning on ordering two bookshelf speakers with plans later to add a center, subwoofer and floorsting speakers (moving the bookshelf speakers to the back to act as surrounds). The room they will be in is large (12' by 30' in the section we are going to put them in with a total of approximately 600 total square feet with open doorways into another room approximately another 200 square feet). My choices are:

Audioengine P4
Boston Acoustics A25
Cambridge Audio S20
Infinity Primus P163
KEF C3
Klipsch RB-41II
Polk Audio RTiA1
Polk Audio TSi200
Polk Audio TSi100
Polk Audio TSx110B
Polk Audio TSx220B
PSB Alpha B1
PSB Alpha B4
Yamaha NS-BP400PN

I could also order any of the following floorstanding speakers:

Infinity Primus P253
Polk Audio TSi300
Yamaha NS-F150PN

I have "points" in my health program so none of the above would "cost" me anything. Thanks in advance!

Generally, the "best" is a personal choice anddepends on which ones sound best to you, not me or anyone else. Choosing a speaker based solely on reviews and opinions of others is akin to marrying a wife you've never met.

Which ones have you listened to?

For a large space you generally want largish speakers.
 
I would start with larger speakers to start off as that space could use it. But I agree with Mark, you really need to go have a listen to some speakers to see what you like. Find an audio store and audition some stuff. Once you find what you like, then I would match up the rest of the speakers I I went to make sure they work together, so same brand.
