Thanks for your help Gordon. To say you have a nice system would be an understatement. :)

I have ML Purity fronts which are self powered by internal 200W amps. I called ML and they said you can't bypass the internal amp with an external one. I was confused by this as the specs show the speakers to be rated up to 400W on ML's site. The guy at ML said his internal docs showed they were...

Yes. If I'm in the sweet spot it sounds good at 0db. However when I'm not I have to set to 3-5db but it sounds a little more muddy than I would like.
