Upgrading to B&W CDM7

Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

208.58.240.143

I need advice. I have recently set up a home theater/audio system. I purchased B&W 602s2 for mains and the cdmc se for a center. I have LM1s for the rear. The receiver is a denon 2800. I'm really impressed by the clarity of the cdmc center. Now I want to upgrade my fronts to the cdm series. I know the NTs have come out and I have read rave reviews about them. My dealer is willing to give me 100% credit on my 602s and stands toward either cdm7s. He'll let me have the se for $1500 including tax and the NTs for roughly $300 more. Is the difference worth $300?
Another reason why I'm thinking of the SEs is because I'm stuck with the Se Center(great center by the way) because it was a floor sample, no returns. So in order to keep the tonality the same, I'm thinking I'm better off with the SE's. But does that really make a difference? I have been listening to 5 channel stereo more often then 2 lately.
Also will the Denon 2800 be able to handle either one of these speakers?
Any advice would greatly be appreciated....
