Gonk,

You were dead on! I feel like an idiot as I was trying to run out of the multi sources and or the ext in plugs. Finally after staring at my old trusty Denon manual I found the "pre-out" jacks. Ran the fronts out to the Belles pre amp and we were in business! Honestly dealing with a product like the Belles as the main power source to the fronts there is just no comparison. The Rega Mira 3 just was not enough of a difference while it still was better no doubt.
So I am a proud new owner of the following:
Belles Soloist 3 : http://www.powermodules.com/soloist.html
Usher V-602's : http://www.usheraudiousa.com/products/loudspeakers/v-series/v-602

I gave the Outlaw combo some serious consideration while doing the research but settled this way.

Next to come will most likely be and updated surround processor(970 maybe) and a new center channel as I am selling of the Audio Pro set up I believe.

Thanks to you folks who chimmed in with input and advice.

Happy Holidays!
Pete
