Great options to think about! My primary interest of the system will continue to be 2-multi channel music for me. The move to HT is really for the rest of the family. I am SOOOO looking forward to watching SpongeBob Squarepants in 6.1 surround ;-OI've been keeping an eye at the online classifieds and noticed the M-L Cinema available second-hand for around $900 give or take. That's a few hundred dollars more than I had budgeted for my center speaker, so now I'm considering scratching the sub and putting the $500 budgeted for it toward the center. The SL3s go down to about 30Hz, so I may be able to live w/o a sub for a while - especially considering that I should be able to bypass the Bass Management System of the AVR and redirect the low frequencies to the front mains.
Btw, I haven't picked up my AVR yet. The one I had in mind was the Outlaw 1050 at about $500 or so new.

BTW, I also have this wierd idea that if find yourself noticing audio nuances while watching a DVD, the director was probably not doing his job. I remember an interview with Danny EWlfman regarding the music he wrote for Batman. He said the goal is that music should affect for mood and response, but that you should not be aware of it.
