Hi all,

I'm in the process of putting together a "music first, home theatre second" setup and could use some advice.

I've recently purchased an Onkyo TX-SR606 receiver and would like to pair it with either:
A) a pair of bi-amped M80s
B) a pair of bi-amped M60s and a pair of M22s

The reason I'm contemplating the M60 + M22 setup is I don't want to compromise the audio fidelity I can get with the M80s but I don't know if this receiver has the power to run the M80s adequately. (I read a forum post from Mojo stating the M60s lack some of the mids and highs that make the M80s shine, but pairing them with M22s really open them up)

Later on I will spec out the rest of a 5.1 setup with either M2s or QS8s and a VP150. Maybe an SVS sub...

Do you think the M60s or M80s will sound good with this receiver or am I trying to power a Porsche with a Lada engine?

Thanks,
Chris.
