Default Help me build a HTPC.. please

So I have a $1300 budget and basically want a very quiet, relitively fast and reliable dedicated Media Centre to run Blu-Ray movies, music and other downloads. I won't be incorporating 5.1 audio into it only 2.1 and have been eyeing off the Logitech z Cinema USB 'surround' speakers. Oh and It will all be connected to my Sony Bravia 42" X series.

I really am looking advice from the ground up as I am getting a techy friend to build it, but I don't necessarily trust his judgement on good parts, so any brands and models I can suggest based on your expert advice will be essential.

thanks for all the help with this, I'll list a few requirements below:

Mid-High end video card re:9600gt
7200rpm HDD
Dual Core not quad
BD drive with burning capabilities (unless it blows the budget)
good quiet fans (really need advice here)

that's all I can think of for now.
