Should be no problem. The M60s are 8 ohm and reasonably efficient so almost any receiver or amp can drive them -- but it seems like the RX-V870 has lots of power anyways.

With the M80s (4 ohm load) you have to be more careful with what you hook them up to, but the M60s work with pretty much any electronics. The main thing to remember is that bigger speakers tend to be EASIER to drive than smaller speakers (because they are more efficient and thus need less power), not harder to drive...

Welcome to the board !

EDIT -- this is wierd... I can find lots of reviews on the RX-V870 (all positive so far) but Yamaha doesn't seem to think it exists... go figure.
