I just purchased Martin Logan Motion 4's as my fronts, 2's as my surround and 6 as my center. Also have a powered subwoofer. I have a Yamaha receiver that is a few years old, but puts out 90watts per channel and can be put at 6phms to match the speakers. I like the sound, but feel I'm not getting everything out of the system. The components are run through HDMI cable and the speakers through good to decent wire. I guess my question is what can I do to improve the overall performance? I just don't feel I'm getting the overall "big" sound I want. Still seems small not wrapping the listner in music.

Also, my cd player just took a dump. I'm using a Blue Ray player knkow to play my cd's. Is this a mistake? Does a good Cd player really make much of a difference?

Thanks for any suggestions.

You'd probably get better response by posting this in the Setup forum, not the A/V distribution forum.

The Motion 4s are not going to give you "big" sound, they're pretty small speakers with very limited low end - i.e. you're not going to get much in the bass department outa them.

That being said, the single thing you could do to improve your sound the most is to buy a good subwoofer. Head on over to the subwoofer sub-forum for recommendations.
