I have the m22ti's and a Yamaha HT receiver, which I'm not entirely happy with. I have yet to purchase the matching center and surrounds for it. I realize the great sound one can experience while watching a DVD with a full HT set up. My Yamaha seems to sound much better during DVD playback than with straight stereo. I question whether a HT receiver has any other uses than movie sound. They all seem to be kind of lame with music. I'm thinking, considering the flaky dsp modes one gets with this technology, that one could save himself some money by switching to a quality 2 channel receiver and ditching the gimmick? What is the consensus amongst yous guys? Are AV receivers a gimmick?
I'm actually thinking of going to 2 channel, ordering a second set of speakers, and running the four with a sub.
