So what I gather from the last few comments is that unless you have a very large room where you need to drive the speakers really loud for good coverage, the wattage specs on a AV receiver wont matter as much if the receiver has the other features you are looking for? At average listening levels I think you're safe with most receivers. It's even ok, IMO, if you're clipping the transients lightly. Most people don't notice clipping till it gets fairly pronounced. It still sounds like the music and if cranked further many interpret it as just being too loud (and not as distortion). I'm fairly certain that if A/B'ed with a clean amp most would notice the difference once beyond a light clip.

So i finally measured the decibels and the average was 66 with peaks around 78. I dont see myself listening to things any louder than this. Im guessing I would be fine with the power this receiver is giving me if I end up getting the QS10s then.

Were you measuring in dBA or dBC? The dBC readings are about 5dB higher than dBA.
Regardless, your M5s and SVS are barely working in your smallish room.
You'll love the QS10s.

You'll love the QS10s. Im not sure, the app I used doesn't state which measurement it is. I will see if I can find a different app to see. Thank you
