From what I have gathered, the 950 has limited bass management. When I get the 950/770, will I need to get the ICBM as well? My system is as follows:
Atlantic Tech System 370 (Left,Center,Right,Surrounds),
2 Definitive Tech PF15's,
Toshiba DVD Audio/Video player, Sony CD changer, Pioneer LD Player (I haven't owned a VCR for 8 years!), and a Mitsubishi 55" HDTV.

Any thoughts?

The DVD-Audio to the 5.1 analog input will not receive any of the 950's bass management (the digital domain's bass management is pretty robust, especially for the price). If the Atlantic Tech 370's can work well with an 80Hz crossover, there is an analog 80Hz crossover on the 5.1 input that can be enabled on the 950, which might suit your needs. If that is not sufficient or you need more control over the bass management, you could always add an ICBM.

By the way, you may know this already, but the System 370 is one of the speaker systems Outlaw uses in-house to test their gear during design (the other is the 270, I believe). That should make for an excellent match-up with a 950/770.
