Sorry we couldn't be more help Luther. I have no personal experience with the speakers in question to provide you with a useful opinion on the combination you are enquireing about.

However, from personal experience, I'm not a huge fan of the "Pioneer" sound, especially in the lower end gear but the Elite line doesn't do much for me either.

Since audio seems to be your primary focus but you want HT capabilities, I'd look into trying to audition a NAD or H/K reciever as well.

Best of luck.
