>>Jeez, who needs seperates with that kind of power.

Geez, I know lots of people

Dennis (Tharkun), do you want to say a few words ?

Actually I am bidding on a Parasound amp right now. Jejejeje.

There are quite a few more of us that are pushing the M80s with 200 to 300 watt amps.

Yes. Like my Outlaw M200s.

If you are creative like Peter you can confuse the electrons giving you more power than the specs list.

Already have:.....inverted the center AND the surrounds(all M3s)causing the input wires to enter at the top, giving a gravity assist to the electrons; it helps on the attack, but not much for sustain..........

Thanks for all the replies. Since I was in a business trip, I was not able to reply the posts.

My favorite receiver list is,

Yamaha 5890,
Pioneer 56txi
Pioneer 54tx
HK 435 and 635.

But I removed HKs from my list because I realized that usually HKs have HW problem I mean that it seems their quality is not good enough.

Actually, power is not so important for me. Since I live in an apartment, I am not able to use all power of my speaker or receiver.

The important thing for me is very good automatic speaker calibration or set-up and good quality.

I know that 56TXi is very expensive but it looks very attractive. On the other hand I may push my budget a little bit more up(1 or 2 hundred bucks).

I do not plan to buy refurbished one.

Denons are good but they are more expensive.

The rest of the features such as DSP, Pro Logic etc. seem common for all receivers.

I forgot to say that my current speaker system is 5.1. The receiver I will buy should allow me (it it is 7.1) to use it as 5.1.
