This is what I also arrived at. I have a similar system with an Odyssey amp driving Maggie 1.6qr's for the front and a set of MMG's driven by my reciever/decoder for the rears (I've also discovered that driving only a single set of MMG's with a 5 channel reciever improves the sound from it... possibly helps the decoder/preamp stages by making the power supply more stable?) A real center just messed up the great maggie imaging (try that scene in Das Boot where the rivets are richochetting around the sub)

Still, there are a lot of movies where surround is just a poorly executed gimmik, which means I still listen to a lot of them in plain stereo.
