Hey all.

I just took advantage of the $399.99 CDN deal for the AVR-888. I was looking at other receivers but for the price I think this is the only one my wife wouldn't kill me for.

I was playing with options and I realize PCM from music sounds really flat on my little infinity(no LF) speakers. Obviously the PCM is not going to use the subwoofer at all so I am thinking of buying some new Front Speakers.

I have two questions:

1. What speakers would you guys get in the range of about $400-500(currently I am thinking Titan Monitor by Paradigm).

3. Would I be able to use these front speakers in my current surround setup and move my current fronts to the back(they are the same as my current back speakers) without them overpowering everything else all the time?

Thanks,
