You should really try and sell one of the eggs and buy a centre speaker that's tonally matched to your B&W fronts. As for an amp, Yamaha RXV667?
I would suggest checking out the onkyo 608 and the Yamaha 667... both of these scored 5 stars at £450 and both are now available for around £300, for this reason the sony 810 now looks poor value for money even though it's gone from £300 to £250 in a similar period.
I plumped for the Yamaha in the end, haven't had time to set it up for surround yet but it does sound suprisingly good in stereo and 2.1.... True about needing to turn it up a little though it is quite laid back at low volumes.
