I’m not concerned about the “perfect” match for surrounds.

The Aidas will be 2 channel when music is the activity.

But when I switch to movies, surround channels are critical.

As you have B&W gear, you should run with 7.x channels using your old gear and add Aidas for the 2 channel setup (and blended theater).
Thank you Grasshopper! I envy you having Cremonas for _side channels_

Will do some experimentation to see if I can get comfortable with a phantom center - but am leaning to at least having the wiring ready for 5.1 so I can go either way
