This is my first post and iam a complete axiom newb so feel free to be as harsh as possible lol....no really. In the next month or so iam looking to getting the vp150 v3, m60 v3, and qs8 v3. Now the question/concerns i have are my receiver is an ONKYO TX-NR807, how would this perform with the setup alone and potentially down the road with an xpa-3 or 5? Ive been told that Yamaha might be a better choice but iam in the less than 1k range so should i stick with what i got or can any one recommend a good receiver Yamaha or any others? Primarily HT use Thanks any input is greatly appreciated
Welcome to the forum kg_ls1_z.
As long as your receiver has pre-outs you will be able to hook up an external amp. Whether or not your system will benefit with one will depend on your room size, listening distance and what speakers you are using or a combination there of.
I would recommend just starting off with the receiver first to power everything and if necessary down the road add the amp. My advice to you when first building a system is to spend as much money as possible on the speakers and subwoofer(s). Get the receiver you want to power them with and treat everything else as secondary. With a room of your size you will need a capable subwoofer, possibly even 2 would be better.
Good luck.
