Default Buying speakers vs. making speakers

Hi all,

I'm after a 5.1 surround setup, and I've been looking at sets like the
Acoustic Energy Aegis Evo 3 and Epos ELS3 5.1. Both are around the
1000GBP mark and both are highly rated by the Hi-Fi magazines (for films
and music).

I know I have the DIY skills to construct and finish MDF speaker
cabinets, but know basically nothing about speaker theory.

Is it really possible to create a set of speakers that have a better
price/performance ratio than an 'off the shelf' product, and where
should I look in order to source drivers and tweeters?

Many thanks,

Sploo.
