Riiiight. So we're talking using one for the fronts, and one for the rears?

Following that logic, my H/K sounds better than someone else running 7.1, because I'm only using it for 5.1?

Sorry, but I'm dubious that taking the load of a few speakers off of a receiver is going to audibly improve the sound.

Ah, the famous transients. Can someone explain what transients are?

EDIT: A further thought (that will anger people, heh): If you're playing it loud enough that you're causing the receiver to distort, you should be using an external amp, anyway. I would wager that just taking 2 speakers off of the thing will not decrease distortion by any significant amount.
