I'm using my M80s for height speakers, now that I have the LFRs. I think it sounds amazing watching BD movies and my room is only 14'wide, 20'long and 8'high. right on, too much is never enough 
DOG is GOD spelled backwards.
What others think of me is none of my business.

Coal, the objective isn't to "fill" a space, it's simply to have an adequate volume level at your listening position, so distance is a more significant factor than room size. The 10' distance you mention is pretty typical for home setups(including my M22s). At that distance the drivers blend smoothly and your 1712(very good buy, incidentally)will have the power to supply more than a safe(to your hearing)listening level. So no, they can't be "a bit much" and you're the one in control of the listening level.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

So sitting next to me are two M22s and two M0s...very hard not to take the rest of the day off to set this stuff up.
Question for all the helpful people on this forum: I plan to run a blue ray player, a cable box, and Apple TV into a receiver with HDMI cables, then run the speakers and one HDMI cable out to the TV from the receiver. Without getting too complicated, does this sound sensible?

That sounds completely sensible. It's what I do, pretty much. As long as you always watch TV with the receiver on.

Absolutely.
It does mean that you'll have to have your receiver on all of the time, though.
I run a second connection from my TiVo to the TV for those times I'm watching late at night and either don't need to have the receiver on, or wish the TV to turn itself off via it's sleep timer (and I don't want the receiver to remain on all night).
