I have to agree with the idea of scrapping the 7.1 idea and eventually going the 5.1 route...but I would do it slowly as others have mentioned. Look around for nice set of bookshelf speakers within your budget and build from there. The next logical step would be to add a timbre-matched center channel from the same manufacturer or a sub from any number of brands. You can always have your receiver set to "phantom mode" to mimic having a CC and get the sub first since it adds so much to the HT experience.
