Another great thread. I have a couple of extra bucks coming my way and I've been trying to decide what to buy next. I have been considering an amp (Emotiva 3 channel) to run my M22's which are my L/C/R's and then leave my old Onkyo to drive the surrounds.

Believe it or not, my other option is to finally buy/make a sub. To this point I only have 5.0 sound and I am actually considering an amp for my fronts before a sub!

I am sure that is crazy talk and EVERYONE here would tell me to get the sub first... but I just can't get over the thought of havng 200 watts per channel dedicated across the front and then I picture the amp sitting in my rack and it just brings a smile to my face. I fully understand that I likely will hear no difference what so ever, especially as I am never running these speakers loud at all... I just WANT to do it!

When push comes to shove I don't know what my decision will be, but the decision will be made in the next couple of week.
