Meddy, years ago, I had a Bose Acoustimass system, and was floored that so much sound could come from such a small system. Then, after living with them for a while, I realized that something was missing ... the entire midrange. The Bose have highs and some mid bass. I then slid head first down the slippery slope of audio upgraditis, and got a pair of Infinity Composition Overture 3s (almost $3000 MSRP for 2), Infinity CCsomething center and Infinity RS4s in surround duty. I then picked up a pair of Axiom M3Tis for a 2 channel system, and realized that these (then) $275 speakers just BLEW AWAY my expensive Infinities which in their turn BLEW AWAY the long gone Bose system.
The M3s are true audiophile speakers ... world class. The Bose speakers are not. If there is some way you could put the M3s in the front L/R positions, you would be doing yourself a great favor.
Good luck with your M3s, they are truly special speakers ... I would go so far as to say they are my favorite Axioms.
Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.

Mike, actually when DPLIIx is applied to a 5.1 or 6.1 movie different material can be sent to the back left as compared to the back right surround. Sound equally strong in the left and right side channels represents something which is supposed to be imaged at the center back, so it's extracted from the sides and sent equally to the two back speakers. Sound a little stronger in the left side channel is sent more loudly to the left back speaker than the right back speaker and images at the left back; similarly right back imaging is created.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
