Golden I am looking to upgrade the receiver because the current one only has hdmi passthru so I have to use seperate optical cables and I dont have enough inputs to connect the 3 items I currently have.

I would love to get the ep350 but I think that will fall out of my budget. The other problem is the space I have for the subwoofer is pretty tight gonna have to measure to see if the 350 will fit. Hopefully things will change by then, but I will definetely start with the m2's
