Hi, well this is my first time buying a home theater system. I was considering buy either
M60ti or M80ti. Which one would be the best receiver for M60ti and M80ti? And I would decide from there which one would suit me the best. Thanks!!

Fataechak, welcome to the board. That is an extremely hard question to answer. First of all, what are you planning on. Just HT, and what size is the room. Also, do you plan on using separate components, IE processer, and amp, or just a receiver all in one package. Look into the Yamaha, Denon, NAD, Marantz, B&K, and my favorite Rotel. I personally suggest staying away from Onkyo, Sony and Pioneer unless you get their flagship models. I have had Onkyo and Sony and both seemed under powered to me. I have read about others not liking Pioneer.
Both the M60's, and M80's are great speakers, depending on your room size and budget will determine that. The M80's are an easy 4Ohm load and most receivers will do OK with them.

There's also H/K to look at.

There'd be very little difference between the M60 and M80 as far as amp requirements, so don't let that affect your choice of speakers. In Yamahas at that price or a little less I'd suggest that you consider the new 2400 instead, primarily because it has the YPAO automatic room and speaker equalization. Also note that the latest version is now being shipped with the DPLIIx upgrade.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I would think the M80's would be better suited for a room that size.

don't worry about the speaker/amp combination. Axioms are great speakers. They will sound great with almost any amp out there. JohnK's recommendation of the Yamaha 2400 is right on. That is the receiver I would aim for if my Onkyo died today.

Pity the baby isn't old enough to pour oatmeal into it yet, eh?
