Now we're getting somewhere, Eric. Your uncle has QS10s! Read my QS10 product review. And know that my buddy, who is no different than you in his audio journey, has been listening to my QS10s since I got them and it's finally clicked for him that he needs them over his Klipsches. So he bought them. And he will drive them with his bottom-of-the-barrel Denon. And he will be happy.
I'd do the QS8 to QS10 trade-in first and then go from there. Of course if you can afford new separates, go for it.
For me, the QS10 upgrade, driven from my Onk, was bigger than the amps. In order of importance for me, for movies, it was as follows: 600v2 to 800v4 and almost a tie with 150v2 to 160v4, QS8v2 to QS10, amps, fronts. Know that for movies, M3s are really all I need; they don't see much action. I'm in a 4200 cu.ft room BTW.
I take it your M80s are v4?
