Does anyone have the following combination?:
Denon AVR-3803
Axiom M22ti main bookshelf speakers
Axiom VP150 Center
Axiom QS8 Surrounds
HSU VTF-2 subwoofer
If so, I am wondering if the receiver is a good match for the speakers. THanks

If it has the features you want at a price you're comfortable with, it's a good match.

I have a Denon 2802 with M60s, QS8s, VP150, and an EP350. For movies the sound is incredible - absolutely unbelievable - perfect. For music the Denon/Axiom combo is extremely articulate, particularly on the upper end. The bass is very tight.
The 3803 has more power but would probably yield similar results.

The high efficiencies and well-tamed impedance curves of the Axioms make them easy to drive. I do not think any of the reputable, circa-US$1000 receivers (including the Denon 3803) will have problems driving the Axioms to very high levels. Select the receiver by mainly focusing on the features.

I'm using a Denon 3803 with the M60tis in the front, VP100 in the center, the Vance Dickason Titanic 10" sub, and Athena S.5 rear surrounds (soon to be replaced). They sound great. The Denon should power your Axioms just fine. If you do a search, you'll find that the Axiom lab uses Denon receivers.
