My previous receiver was a Yamaha 2090. I loved it. Of course, this was their flagship at one point(1995 model). Their flagships seem to have very accurate power ratings. The 2090 was something like 100x3(or 110) and 35x2 for the rears. Also, it had the front surrounds at 35, also, but I never used them as it did nto work with the 5 channel hookups, only pro logic.

i personally was shocked to see the Yamaha ratings so bad. I also feel it is wrong to mislead consumers, and there for moved away from Yamaha for this upgrade.
