[QUOTE="user 997, post: 1140976, member: 997"] The DM60X S3 B&W series speakers, though very good for their price point, have their limitations. The kevlar driver does have limits in resolution and is a bit wooly sounding (newer B&W speakers are much improved on this) so the question for me would be whether an AVR upgrade point would give you any improvement over this, compared to what you already have. I'd expect very much diminished returns. While a crossover upgrade (like a cap upgrade) could give you a bit more, the crossover point on these are set quite high, so it is mostly out of the midband, so I'm not sure how much of a benefit you would see unless the crossover capacitors are starting to deteriorate and you need to replace them.
