Just as an aside, at the CES show this last January, I was literally shocked at how generally "bright" the current crop of home theater speakers are - subjectively more bright than almost all monitor speakers I have heard in dubbing theaters and mastering stutes.

I'm a little surprised by this comment after reading your post before saying that most mixes were done on Genelecs. Any pair of Genelec speaker I've listened to has just about torn off my head. They have to be the brighest sounding speaker I've ever heard!
