It was almost exactly what I was looking for- superior sound, and more importantly- the wife compromised on the smaller footprint.
Ultimately, I ended up toning things down- it is our living room and not a dedicated theater room so it all works out. I've got Montage's up front, Fresco i as the center, Dynamo sub, and vignettes as rears. Pioneer Elite Panel, Denon receiver, panamax conditioner- Harmony 890, PS3 and FIOS round out the fun. All and all I've been very happy.

Thats a nice set-up, I thought about going a similar route to you but I figured I may only get the chance to go this big once in life so I had better do it now. I've always been a huge fan of the electrostat panels beginning with the ML Clarity. I thought about a couple other speakers, Definitive Technology super towers and Vienna Acoustics, but ultimately my love for the ML sound won over. I love how directional they are but I always sit in the same spot to watch TV, movies, and music. I don't much care about the sound quality throughout the house for entertaining purposes because in all honesty, no one else is really going to notice anyways.
I'll post up some pics as soon as I have everything placed but it will be a while most likely because I'll be moving soon depending on a job opportunity.
