i'd go for the sub, you can always turn off the centre and run phantom centre by using the mains, this works well if you are the only one on dead center. Plus if seems like you have a real problem with the sub that needs fix'n
you can have direct input of any 2 channel analog input by selecting stereo then direct. The multy channel input is select in the setup menu and as long as the surround processing is not changed on that setup it will be direct all channels passed thru. I don't know how B&K applies processing to...

there are 3 setting in the xbox audio set the first to dolby digital, the second dobly digital enabled, and 3rd DTS enabled. The rest should be based on the games. HALO is 5.1
you could use the 15 all around. 5 identical speaks is the way to go, most horizontal center channel speakers don't sound exactly the same as the L&R and they have problems sounding the same across the room. It's a way of making them look a little better on top of a TV that most manufactures...
I had a pair of 100's for the L&R, i had to sell them and moved my surround 20's to the front and bought a pair of atoms to replace them, I also have a the studio cc. It works fine. The only problem I see is if you have a big room, the atoms don't handle too much power.
If you are buying from the same dealer you bought the 80's from, then they should make a good deal, I picked up mine for 1900.00 from my dealer after buying others.
I did this with my b&k 307, I used the internal amps of the L&R to power the tweeter/mid of my paradigm 100's and a seperate amp to power the woofers, the b&k307 has line outputs that can be used, it worked great. the only down side was if i used head phones, the seperate amp did not have a...
One thing that may cause the cc to sound that way is if you have it mounted very high up, the cc's front baffle is not at 90 degrees, it is tilled back some what. Try aiming it at your seat ans see if that helps.
If the movies starts to play when you turn on the player just hit one of the file fold buttons, this will stop the movie and bring up the dvd list. Which is what you want, if you don't want to continue watching the movie you last watched.
I would unplug every thing. then plug in the l&r speakers only, play the radio, if all is well then hookup one device, say the cd play thru the digital connect, then try the analog connection, then keep adding thing one at a time. it could be you have a set of bad inter connects.
The B&K also has an Analog pass thru so you can use either the DAC's in your CD/DVD player or use the digital connection and use the B&K DAC's. Nice to have a choice.
I'm a current B&K 307 owner, which was a down grade from a Meridian 568/504/501v front end into 2 Sunfire Cinema Grands, I'm still using the same speakers Paradigm Studio Ref V2 100, cc, 20, ADP. The B&K does not have the latest and greatest, so what, how much DD-ES or DTS 24/96 discreet is...
I had the 565 and used a 501V (this is an analog preamp with s-vic switching and multy room, going for about $400-$500 used). You can also use MSB products,I used the Digital Director to add more digital imputs.
The 565 is a super great sounding pre/pro, with many features. Music is number one...
