Greetings, and welcome -
I was cracking up at your username, trying to figure out what mul-escent means. Oh, Mule Scent. Got it.
Care to expound?
Your receiver will be beyond fine. It's modern and capable, and will sound great with any Axiom speakers. No worries. You'll love the M50's. I am one of those that believes it is very difficult to hear the difference in solid state electronics without spending quite a bit of money.
If you are facing the 12' wall in your room, you might very well be satisfied with a VP100 instead of the 150.
So a search on Factory Outlet. You'll find that very few people can find any blemish whatsoever on their FO speakers. I certainly could not on either my M60's or QS8's.
