Assuming you are going with reflecting atmos speakers..

Elac 5.1.2 speakers for $3300
https://s.lazada.sg/s.4pFl

Onkyo rz830 AVR for $1099
https://s.lazada.sg/s.4sb7


The rear atmos, I'm not too sure. Maybe you could get the same as the forward ones and place on top of the rear speakers, but need some height for them to bounce the sound.

Budget : SGD4500 to SGD6000 overall

Recommend to go Adelphi to get quote.
With such high budget, can setup proper Atmos with installation
like in ceiling speakers and etc.

Denon AVR with ELAC speakers.
FYI ELAC speakers are designed by Andrew jones whom was
the engineer for Pioneer speakers.

However Pioneer andrew jones package are not sold separately
so ELAC is good brand to choose.

Best to audition them, if you have a favorite blu ray movie you
can test at Adelphi.
Example Aquaman in my opinion is a good movie to test.
Chapter 2 the sub fight, see how each speaker handle the scene
well.

I suggest you audition how the front three sound, and the sub.
The rest will fall into place.

Been thinking also... if it were me, I would want rich warm mids that transition seamlessly with subwoofer deep bass yet have clarity and sparkle. This may mean the speakers have to be big enough. You may wanna share your placement plan in your home as it might affect your choices cos read that some speakers need more breathing space. Any advice from experts on subwoofers? Is SVS subwoofer really better than the typical speaker brands. And how important is it? Hope experts can chime in.

This is blending among sub and speakers.
EQ and room calibration plays a part as well.

Hard to comment on brand as I only play with Yamaha, Wharfdale and pioneer. Others not yet.

I think you should go for KEF Q series as KEF speaker are very netural and really play apart on accessories like jumper , cables and innerconnector able to future tune to your liking...if you into Bass would be Klipsch, Elac not sure as i didn't demo before...Focal and Dynaudio is great too....I also heard Neat acoustics speakers those are great for midrange.... actually is best to demo yourselves cause everyone have different taste

I didn't listen to Yamaha , but listened to Wharfedale Diamond 11.5 , 11.1 , 11CS /240C and WSub10 . What is your feedback on Wharfedale?
