Thanks Dr. House for your recommendations.

I am using an older receiver which limits calibration. Had a Onkyo 608, but returned today to Best Buy as volume never started until level 43 of 99. I have the the M60s set to large as you suggested and then I set the the speaker setting for the M60s to +3 and that seemed to help. Also set the Bass to +5 and the Treble to -2. This brought out more of the bass and took away some of the echo sounding that I was getting in stereo mode. Will keep playing with the settings and try out different music and movies. Phantom of the Opera CD should give me a better feel vs the 2 movies I have watched thus far.
