I'll stay away from the sub issue, 50/50 listining - Qs-8s no question. I feel they are the overall best surround I know. From a 100% music only stand point, the 4 60s would make sense. The Qs-8s are not a total slouch with music - But magic with movies. You will not regret the purchase of any number of Qs-8s, If you really want to focus on "discrete" SACD music listening, You would simply enjoy the Qs-8s in a 7.1 mode down the road as I do.
