I listen to 2-channel (50%) of the time and home theater (50%). I sit about eight feet (8'x20' room) from the T.V. and the speakers ( I am not moving for at least 2 years. I want to make sure the m50s are not too large for my room). When I listen to 2-channel I do not enjoy the way the subwoofer is incorporated into the system. What speakers would be best for me? Presently, my receiver is denon avr 2801. Would the best route to take be adding a pre-amp to power the m50s (left and right) and keep the denon to power the sub and rears and center. Then when listening to 2-channel I will have the bass I want from the fronts and when I listen to dolby digital I will just calibrate everything else. Now, whenever I listen to music I manually adjust the subwoofer anyway because I do not like the default setting I use for home theater for music. Also, I am willing to get a new amp at a resonable price. My Cd player is the cambridge 500se. Suggestions please
