The only thing missing now is a 180OW facing the kitchen.

That is a ton of speaker for that area but really nice installation. The space looks great!
How is the sound working out?

yeah your totally right Chess, it's way overkill. It's sounds amazing though! the m80 on wall with the EP600 are a perfect combo. When cooking I just swing the M80s into the kitchen and crank it up! When watching a movie I swing them into the living room. The Yamaha receiver has two different audio setting packages, so it's easy to go back and forth.
I started this audio endeavor about a year ago, and it's been such a fun venture, with many experiments to finally reach my audio nirvana in my unique listening space. I really hope others have benefited from these posts.

And some people i know don't understand why or just how high i like to crank the music when i'm in the kitchen...and the living room is 18 feet away! Big speaker and big power required!

Finally hooked up the ADA1500-5. I didn’t have time to re-run audyssey but I can tell it’s needed. The rears really came to life with the extra power but I didn’t notice as much with the front stage. I think it’s due to the speakers being set to small from the last audyssey calibration. The main thing I noticed was it’s a lot cleaner sounding and I enjoyed listening at lower volumes. I may end up trying some different banana plugs too. The ones I have are really snug in my avr but somewhat loose in the 1500. The posts seem to be shorter on the 1500 than the avr.

Here's what you do now. Get yourself a pitcher of corn kernels. Set your M100s to full range, stereo. Put on some death metal. Turn your Denon up to +10. Turn on the 1500. Pour the kernels into an M100 sphincter. Watch popcorn come spraying out from all the sphincters. Suck in that smell of melting coil adhesive and cooked windings.

I could be wrong but I think the objective would be not to melt the voice coils.

Shooting sparks and billowing smoke add to the "you're there in the concert" experience. It's good fun. You gotta let loose once in a while.
