Good points.

I will say this: I think my current setup is not going to change. If anything changes, it would be the center channel. I think everything is else setup and good to go.

I plan on living in the house for about 5 years, then moving out of Southern California.
In my next place, I plan on going all out.

But for now, ya, it is really just to get my going with my speakers (they are all wired and ready to go...just need the receiver). Like I said, I like cleaness, quality and good power, but not overwhelming power. I want to be able to play a DVD, watch the movie with the system and then step back and go "Wow. That was freakin awesome!".

Thanks again for everyones help.

Cheers,
