Monos, Stereo or Multi-Ch for HT and Music

Hi all,

Longtime lurker, first time poster.  Always found this forum very informative.  

I have just purchased a Lyngdorf MP-60 at a greatly reduced price and am going to make it the centerpiece of my home theater that hopefully also does music well.  Presently, I have Focal Electra towers, center and surrounds, but these will be upgraded to Utopia Stellas, Viva and Diablos.

Firstly, has anyone heard the Lyngdorf for music?  Does it perform as well as, say, an integrated (or pre) and dac made more specifically for music?

More importantly, how to power all of this?  I've been considering McIntosh but am open to other suggestions.  Would McIntosh be a good match for the above components?  Also, what combination of monos, stereo and multi-channel (tube or solid state) would be an optimal balance between HT and music?  Here are some options:

MC462 for towers, MC303 for center/surrounds

MC2301 or MC611 for towers, MC303 for center/surrounds

I think many would say I should use MC303 for the towers and center for consistency, but I was hoping to move up a step for the towers to optimize their use for music.  Also, in the case of MC2301, is it a bad idea to mix tubes with solid state?  Again, I'm also open to other brands.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
