Hi M60,

Couple of things. First, check to see how Audessey set your mains. My guess is it set them as large, since they are capable of -3db at 80Hz. If so, with the Subs set to "LFE" (default for the Denon), the subs will not get any bass. Play a song and see if the subs are active. If they are not (or moving VERY little), set the mains to "Small", and the crossover frequency at 80Hz to start with.

Also, I am a little confused when you say they sound "flat", but the highs are there and there is no mid. Typically, flat sounding speakers would have no highs and a lot of mid.

Welcome to the gang!

Edit: I also checked the Best Buy site. With those specs, your friend has the model 7006, which goes for $1300 a pair if not open box (compared to about $1000 a pair for the M60s). But you are right, the M60s should sound better (even though the 7006 really cost 30% more if you compare apples to apples). Seriously, check the main speaker setting
