Hi Blackie,
Good you didn't regret your purchase (buyer's remorse) - it must be a terrific sounding system. I am just wondering, what Denon model are you using now? I believe since you have a HT setup, the 9.6 are your main LR speakers.
For my needs, I plan to use the 9.6 for a stereo setup using the Onkyo amp / cdp. I already have my 5.1 rig using Tannoy MX2s and NAD 752 which, I would hasten to add, is not too shabby sounding either.
By the way, I did a bit of a research, a phone call here and there and I discovered that the Onkyo combo is already in the Philippines (Onkyo-B&W Showroom, The West Wing Bldg, West Avenue, QC). Together, they cost P 75K, about the same cost in US dollars. I believe I can get a better price by haggling. Will report on the combination if I get my hands on these babies.
Best,
