Can you help me transition to 2 channel audio?

I've had a medium budget HT rack for a few years now (ATI 7*200 amp, Arcam AV-8 processor, Equitech 2.5Q, KEF 205 speakers, Denon DVD player, M&K sub, etc.)

The home theater part has met my family's expectations, but frankly the music is just flat and uninvolving.

Is there any way to effectively have a HT set-up that also is musical? I'm willing to spend about 5k to start to bring the music back to live.

Your help is appreciated!

Yes, with a combi system. First put together a musical 2 channel system like you are already planning. Then use the front L/R pre out of your HT system and connect it to a line level in on the preamp of your new 2 channel system. With a setup like this when you use your 2 channel system your HT system is not in the loop but when using the HT system it will be improved from your new more musicial front L/R 2 channel setup, see link below;

My surround sucks and I want to get some good two-channel music
