Ugh....If I end up with the M60's will I be kicking myself??? I've already HEAVILY influenced my amp selection by moving up a notch on the Denon to the 4803R...rather than the 3805 or comparable which I was originally looking at. I order the 4802 today...

Hmmm....ok...halfway through this post I went downstairs and measured the living room...the carpet ends at 18ft...and then you enter the kitchen. I think I'll be alright with the 80's because the couch will extend about 3 or so feet past that...so...the bulk of the listeners will be at 14 to 15 ft away...although a few will be closer...it's a sectional. I'm sorta handicapped because I can't set things up in a traditional rectangular format...I have to stick the TV in a corner....

M80's it will be unless someone really convinces me otherwise.
