...with a subwoofer hooked to the extra line out on the preamp.

As noted in other responses, do not use the TV as a center. You should get a good phantom center if your seating area is samll compared to the distance between speakers. If not try toe-in on the speakers to avoid a lopsided soundstage for those sittting far off-center.

I mostly listen to music, watch a movie or 2 on the weekend and almost no TV [dont even have cable]. I really enjoy the setup. I would like surround for the effects, but would rather spend more on 2 quality channels than 5 mediocre ones.
