Steve,
Do you have 7.1 speakers setup too? Do you use a single pair of Dali's for front L&R main speakers?
I have a couple of "different" suggestions based on your answers.
Personally, I think the music portion of the system is much more critical and I'm a huge proponent of building and excellent 2-channel system first, then adding HT capabilities. I've done this several times in my combo 2-channel/HT room.
Currently I have an extremely simple 2-channel system and an HT system in the same room, with the electronics in the same rack. I have my 2-channel system in a typical setup, but my HT speakers are all wall mounted, out of the way and are not attached to the 2-channel rig.
So, let us know all of the equipment including the surround speakers) and you might get some good feedback.
Enjoy,
TIC
