The Center Channel is in effect a 40/60 so it is a perfect match. I do about 60/40 (music/ht). My daughter is more like 10/90. You really begin to appreciate Scooby Doo in surround sound. Some of the Disney stuff gives the amps and speakers a good workout. Neighbors complained (houses are rather close together) until they realized the free baby sitting. It capitavates all the young ones into the movie/show.
Findining multichannel music that is mixed appropriately is hard. The DTS only discs availabe are limited and somewhat costly. Since I don't plan to purchase a DVD-A or SACD transport/player for a while or until they actually restore the bass management into future units, I don't consider DVD-A / SACD discs. Some of them do include a DTS or Digital Dolby track but like I stated earlier, the mix doesn't sound right sometimes. In doing comparisons with the same disc on two different formats (DTS vs PCM w/ProLogic) PCM using ProLogic was better, beleivable and more enjoyable.
Good luck on finding a good price for the speakers. Just a quick question: Have you look into VonSchweikert VR2s used? Look around some of the higher quality HIFI stores - They sound more transparent that the 60s or 100s.

All I ask is for a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
