back to topic...flip the coin...head= ms , tail= ma. sinece you like both and price is almost same.
btw if you plan for home theater just go for ma carnival 6 for front speaker for less than 1k.
better spend the money for dedicated hi i system.
my 2 rupee.

i guess mr. lim from accoustics solution

me also like you before: 60% music and 40% movie.
people say marantz avr is good for music.no need dedicated set up for hifi.
but i was very wrong amigo.
again your money rite? so just go for ma laa.
right now i'm still in india.otherwise you can come to my house to listen to my hi fi and home theater set up for music.
let us know your budget and we will prepare some poison for you
