Incorporating my two channel system with HT I lost much of the two channel imaging I worked so hard to get right so I gave up in favor of separate systems.
There is still a sweet spot with HT but it's much more forgiving. I recently upgraded my receiver to a newer 7.1, HDMI 1.3 with the latest codes and room correction and the difference is amazing. My HT area is in an awkward corner and adjusting the simple distance and level settings never came close to what room correction has done.
