My preference has always been for stereo over multi-channel audio. I honestly think that it is from years of only listening to stereo CDs...For you the difference may be an imbalance of your amplifiers. I mean that in design theory and not a physical problem with any of them. From looking at your earlier post you are using a C-J tube amp for your mains and the Denon Amps for the rest. Most of the advice that I have been given about home theater centers around two things.. Use the same brand/model range of speakers and drive them with the same/similar power.
I think that Denon makes great HT gear, but the C-J amp you are using is in another class sonically. Maybe for multi-channel audio they are just not blending together sonically?
Just my $0.02...
