Was thinking of using this receiver with my M22's, QS4's and VP150. Anyone have experience with Marantz? It is rated at 50 watts but have read they are conservative with their ratings.
Thanks
Marantz are very good and you really can't go wrong with the purchase. The only item of caution would be that this particular AVR is designed for dealing with space issues for use in a relatively small room. Even if it drove all the channels equally at the same output(50 watts)since the speakers you have are capable of handling much higher power output, you have to be careful of clipping and possible damage to your speakers if you attempt to turn the AVR up too loud.
Of course, this AVR would probably not have enough power and headroom to deal with the volume requirements of a larger space in which case a model with the capability of 100 watts/ch and up would better serve your requirements.
